RULING

1. The Applicant was sentenced to serve 7 years imprisonment for the offence of arson. This was on 2/3/2017.

2. He claims he never appealed and wants sentence reduction because he is remorseful and has served a third of sentence in prison.

3. This court has no power to remit sentence. The power of remission rests with prison’s authorities.

4. For the above reason, I find this Application devoid of merit. I hereby dismiss it. File closed.

5. Orders accordingly.
