This is an application for review of sentence. The Applicant having been found guilty and convicted for the offence of robbery with violence was sentenced to a term of imprisonment for twenty years (twenty because it was a concurrent sentence). He did not appeal the sentence to the Court of Appeal.
The Prosecution has placed before me a judgment of Odunga J, as he then was, delivered on 12th August 2020, wherein the sentence was reduced to fifteen (15) years the Applicant cannot therefore approach this court for a review as Article 50(2)(q) which provides a right of review expressly states that the review should be to a higher court. This court does not therefore have the requisite jurisdiction to disturb or review the judgment/sentence of Odunga J. The application dated 8th October 2015 is therefore not properly before this court and it is dismissed.
Orders accordingly.
Ruling dated, signed and delivered virtually on this 3rd November, 2025.
