Therefore, the respondent prayed for the dismissal of the appeal.}{\rtlch \fcs1 \af0 \afs28 \ltrch \fcs0 \fs28 \rtlch \alang1025 \ltrch \dbch \af6 \hich \af5 \loch \f5 \lang1033 \langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \alang1025 \cf1 \par }\pard \plain \qj \li0 \ri0 \sa4 \sl360 \slmult1 \widctlpar \aspalpha \aspnum \adjustright \lin0 \rin0 \itap0 \rtlch \fcs1 \af0 \afs22 \ltrch \fcs0 \fs22 \rtlch \alang1025 \ltrch \dbch \af2 \hich \af2 \loch \af2 \lang2057 \langnp2057 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \alang1025 {\rtlch \fcs1 \af0 \afs28 \ltrch \fcs0 \b1 \fs28 \rtlch \alang1025 \ltrch \dbch \af6 \hich \af5 \loch \f5 \lang1033 \langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \alang1025 \cf1 [4]}{\rtlch \fcs1 \af0 \afs28 \ltrch \fcs0 \fs28 \rtlch \alang1025 \ltrch \dbch \af6 \hich \af5 \loch \f5 \lang1033 \langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \alang1025 \cf1 \tab }{\rtlch \fcs1 \af0 \afs28 \ltrch \fcs0 \fs28 \rtlch \alang1025 \ltrch \dbch \af6 \hich \af5 \loch \f5 \lang1033 \langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \alang1025 \cf1 The Court called for the record of the subordinate court in }{\rtlch \fcs1 \af0 \afs28 \ltrch \fcs0 \b1 \fs28 \rtlch \alang1025 \ltrch \dbch \af6 \hich \af5 \loch \f5 \lang1033 \langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \alang1025 \cf1 Homa Bay Criminal Case No. 1271 of 2013: Republic v Washingtone Olendo & others}{\rtlch \fcs1 \af0 \afs28 \ltrch \fcs0 \fs28 \rtlch \alang1025 \ltrch \dbch \af6 \hich \af5 \loch \f5 \lang1033 \langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \alang1025 \cf1 as well as }{\rtlch \fcs1 \af0 \afs28 \ltrch \fcs0 \b1 \fs28 \rtlch \alang1025 \ltrch \dbch \af6 \hich \af5 \loch \f5 \lang1033 \langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \alang1025 \cf1 Homa Bay High Court Criminal Appeal No. 12 of 2012: Washingtone Odhiambo Olendo v Republic}{\rtlch \fcs1 \af0 \afs28 \ltrch \fcs0 \fs28 \rtlch \alang1025 \ltrch \dbch \af6 \hich \af5 \loch \f5 \lang1033 \langnp1033 \langfe1033 \langfenp1033 \alang1025 \cf1 and confirmed that indeed the applicant was charged with two counts of attempted murder; and that he was found guilty, convicted and sentenced to 20 years\uc1 \u8217 ? imprisonment on each count, to run concurrently.
