The accused is a 1st offender; there is no record of earlier
conviction. We urge the court to take into consideration the time
accused had been in prison custody while the trial last.
Prosecutor – We are leaving the sentence to the discretion of the
court.
The
accused
person
is
hereby
sentenced
to
five
years
imprisonment with effect from 6th Day of July 2010 on each Count
from Count 2 to Count No. 5.
The terms of imprisonment to run concurrently. The court decided
to be lenient with the accused because he is a first offender and
some of the witnesses claimed to have had dealing with the
accused where accused exhibited honesty before the transaction
that went sour.
