A man has been sentenced to death after he was convicted of two counts of robbery with violence.
A court in Kibera, Nairobi, handed the man the ultimate sentence after finding that he stole phones valued at Ksh39,000 and cash in violent robberies.
According to the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), the robberies occurred separately on the night of November 3, 2024, around 11 pm in Kawangware.
In one incident, the convict snatched a Tecno phone worth Ksh24,000 from a resident, before stealing another phone valued at Ksh15,000 from another man while threatening them with violence.
