The Applicant is Michael Otieno Kariuki. He was convicted and sentenced to serve life imprisonment vide Chief Magistrate’s Court at Nyando in Sexual Offences Case No 734 of 2012 for the offence of defilement contrary to Section 8(1) as read with Section 8(2) of the
Sexual Offences Act

Criminal Procedure Code
.

I have considered the application which is not supported by any court proceedings or record.

This not a constitutional petition, I find no ground upon which I can review sentence which was upheld by the High Court.
