Mambo ya kutoa dhamana…
Mambo ya kutoa dhamana anaposhikwa yafutiliwe mbali. Linalotakikana ni kuwa mtu anaposhikwa na ushahidi wa kutosha akae kifungoni mpaka kesi yake itakapomalizika.
Hebu niambieni, mtoto huyu alipata wapi laki moja (100,000.00) za kutoa dhamana?

@ Sukari,that makes me wonder about some of the segments in our society that let old men in their 50s marry a girl that age.Cannt figure their rationale
Is this junior thug…
Is this junior thug represented by a court appointed lawyer,or did he get his own lawyer,with the help of co-conspirators?I cannot imagine a 14 year old standing in front of a judge saying,”you honor I plead not guilty to the charges leveled against”.
I believe that this boy just graduated to men’s league after terrorizing women and other kids. Lock him up as an adult to teach other kids that this is serious business.I say mindful that “moralists” will be clamouring for juvenile rehabilitation center…
Kipengele cha katiba…
Kipengele cha katiba kinachosema mtu anaposhikwa na ushahidi wa kutosha atoe dhamana kifutiliwe mbali mara moja ikiwa Jubilee inataka kumaliza ufisadi katika nchi yetu ya Kenya.
Pia ningependa kuona kipengele cha katiba kinachowaruhusu watu kutajirika mara moja huku wakimtumia Mwana wa Mariamu – Yeshua na pia Mwana Aisha – Mohamed kifutiliwe mbali mara moja. Hivi sasa, makanisa na misikiti yamekuwa ngome ya utapeli na ujambazi katika nchi ya Kenya.
