A Mombasa court had deferred sentencing businessman Abdulmajid Timami citing that the Court required a presentencing report from the probation department to be able to come up with the most appropriate punishment.
The businessman was convicted last week for trafficking Sh3M of heroin, however, the court deferred the sentencing to Monday 16th Jan.
Timami was convicted after prosecution presented 8 witnesses and proved that he indeed trafficked 1015.8gms of heroin.
The trial magistrate ruled that the prosecution had successfully proved that Timani was guilty and that all the evidence produced in Court was never disputed by the defense.
Further, the Court ruled that Timami failed to produce witnesses to substantiate the allegation that the drug was planted in his car, among other claims.
