The Court of Appeal has upheld a 30-year sentence handed to a young man who raped an octogenarian.

Three judges, of the Court of Appeal in Kisumu, said the sentence served by a lower court and upheld by the High Court is solid enough not to be shaken by the appeal of James Mirieri Akunga who contested how he was identified by the victim.
