REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT KIAMBU CRIMINAL CASE NO.E015 OF 2025 REPUBLIC …………………………………..…………..…..PROSECUTION VERSUS MERCY WANJIRU NJERI …………….…..…………..……..….ACCUSED RULING 1. Having heard and considered the oral application for review of the Bail/Bond terms current in force vide the Ruling dated and delivered on 7th January 2026; it is my finding that the Bail/Bond terms already in force vide the Ruling dated and delivered on 7th January 2026 are already lenient. 2. A Bond of KShs.300,000.00 with one surety of a similar amount or in the alternative a Cash Bail of KShs.150,000.00 sufficiently balances the competing interests with respect to an Accused Person facing a homicide charge. 3. The stated inability of the Accused Person to meet the financial terms set due to her age, lack of fixed income, and humble background, while significant factors; were clearly already considered and applied by My Sister in her Ruling of HCCR.

7th January 2026, resulting in those very lenient Bail/Bond terms. 4. Having found no reason to vary the Bail/Bond terms already in force, the Application for Review of Bail/Bond terms is declined and the existing terms shall subsist in the interim. The Accused Person shall be at liberty to apply once again, if she so wishes, if circumstances change. Orders Accordingly.
