An act of withdrawing Sh 26,600 from a deceased model's Mpesa account has handed a 34 year old man a death sentence at the Mombasa law court.
Robert Kinisu charged with violently robbing in an act that led to the model's death two years ago was slapped with a death sentence by Chief Magistrate Julius Nang’ea after he found him guilty.
Kinisu was charged alongside Ali Mkongo with the crime of robbery with violence, but Mkongo was acquitted because the prosecution could not prove he was involved in the violent act.
They two had denied that on June 7, 2016, robbed Janet Asuna a cellphone, sandwich toaster, an iron box and a mobile charger at Kizingo area in Mombasa County armed with a wooden stool valued at 19,500 and during the time of robbery used personal violence and killed her. Janet was found bludgeoned to death in her mother's house in the upmarket Kizingo estate. Nang’ea said the prosecution had proved its case against Kinisu and therefore warranted a death sentence for the accused person.
