RULING

1. On 13.12.2017 the Convict Stephen Ochieng was convicted of the

offence of grievous harm contrary to Section 234 of the Penal Code

and sentenced to serve 5 years imprisonment. He did not appeal. He now seeks for sentence Revision under Prison decongestion.

2. The offence for which he was convicted and sentenced carries up to life imprisonment. Five (5) years imprisonment was too lenient as the victim sustained very serious injuries involving fractures and cut wounds.

3. I find the application not merited as there are no mitigating factors.

4. I decline the application and dismiss it.

5. File closed.

6. Orders accordingly.
