(Appeal from a judgment of the High Court of Kenya at Nakuru (Mr. Justice Rimita) dated 7^th December, 1993

H.C.CR.A. NO. 304 OF 1993)

*************************

JUDGMENT OF THE COURT

       The appellant, Kitipa Ole Nkukuu, was after trial convicted of stock theft contrary to section 278 of the Penal Code and sentenced to 4 1/2 years  imprisonment plus 8 strokes of the cane.  His appeal to the High Court of Kenya at Nakuru (Rimita, J.) was dismissed.

       The trial and the first appellant Courts, in our view, made concurrent findings of fact and we discern no misdirections in them.  There is no point of law raised in this second appeal to persuade us to interfere with the conviction.  Consequently this appeal is dismissed.

Dated and delivered at Nakuru this 25^th day of September, 1995.
