Ireri admitted that he was found with 30 rolls of bhang with street value of Sh2,100 while his accomplice had 15 rolls worth Sh1,200 on May 10. The court heard that the two were found with the bhang contrary to the narcotics and psychotropic substances control Act. The bhang was recovered from their respective pockets during a search by the police, after the arrest. They admitted the facts of the case as read out in court by prosecution counsel Robert Ogalo. In mitigation, Ndung’u, 18, told the court that he is remorseful for the contravening law and pleaded for leniency.
