    Chief Justice Martha Koome has launched the prisons decongestion initiative at the Nairobi remand and allocation of a maximum security prison in an industrial area. More than 300 reminders out of the 4,000 detained at the prison were released as part of the program. The initiative will also review bail and sentencing guidelines to hand non-custodial sentences to petty offenders to reduce congestion in prisons.
