and

Richard Mangi Mugo

Accused

Ruling

1.I have considered the evidence of the 10 prosecution witnesses. I have also considered the submissions filed herein by both the prosecution and the defence sides. This court is guided by the decision in Ramanlal Trambaklal Bhaff versus Republic (1957)EA, 332, that,“It may not be easy to define what is meant by a “prima facie case,” but at least it must mean one on which a reasonable tribunal, properly directing its mind to the law and the evidence could convict if no explanation is offered by the defence.”

2.I am in the circumstances convinced that the prosecution has established a prima facie case against the accused. I accordingly find that the accused has a case to answer and I place him to his own defence under section 211 of the criminal procedure code.
