The Appellant was charged with the offence of unnatural
offence before the District Court of Mtwara. He was convicted and sentenced to
the mandatory 30 years’ imprisonment with four strokes of the cane. His appeal
to the High Court was dismissed in its entirety. Still being aggrieved the
Appellant filed this appeal on three grounds: that the Appellant was not
properly identified; that the PF3 was irregularly admitted; and that the trial
court did not take into consideration his defence of alibi.
