[2025] KEHC 9349 (KLR)

The court found that there were no compelling reasons to deny the accused bail. The pre-bail report was favourable, and the State did not oppose the application. Accordingly, the court exercised its discretion to grant the accused bond of Kshs. 200,000 with a surety of a similar amount, ensuring the accused's attendance at trial while upholding the constitutional right to bail.
