1. I have seen the letter by the applicant dated 10/3/2026. I have considered the record of the trial court.
2. Applicant was charged on 2/4/2024 with the offence of stealing. He was granted bond on the same day for Kshs.200,000/- with two sureties. However, he was unable to raise it. Accordingly, he remained in custody throughout his trial up to the date of conviction and sentence on 10/12/2025. He was sentenced to 2 years’ imprisonment.
3. I noted that the trial court did not comply with section 333(2) of the Criminal Procedure Code.
