[2025] KEHC 9905 (KLR)

The court found that since the applicant had already served the sentence in question by 25th November 2024, the application for revision was rendered moot and could not be entertained. The matter was therefore marked as abandoned and the file closed, as there was no longer a live issue for the court to determine.
