NAAMAN AILA OWINO VS The Republic

High Court at Siaya High Court · · R. E. Aburili

1. The applicant Naaman Aila Owino was convicted vide Bondo PM Cr. Case No. E151/2022 of the offence of Stealing contrary to Section 278 of the Penal Code and on his own plea of guilty.  He was sentenced to serve three (3) years imprisonment on 30/3/2022 and as at that date, he was reportedly serving another sentence in prison hence non-custodial sentence was not suitable for him.
2. It is also important to note that vide Cr. Case No. E159/2022, he was convicted of escape from lawful custody and sentenced to serve one year imprisonment on 25/3/2022.
3. The applicant now applies that the sentences should run concurrently.
4. I have considered the application dated 1/3/2023 and find no merit in it as the offences were committed at different times.
5. The application dated 1/3/2023 is dismissed.  This file is closed.
