A man found with five rolls of bhang has been jailed for six months by a Thika court. Timothy Maina Kariuki, 19, was arrested by APs who were tipped off by informers on November 10 at Mugutha in Ruiru, Kiambu. He was charged with being in possession of bhang which was not in medicinal preparation. Principal magistrate D A Orimba sentenced Kariuki after he was unable to raise a fine of Sh30,000. Orimba gave him 14 days to appeal. Kariuki did not have legal representation.
