Kamanda, who was 22-year-old when she won the beauty pageant, was sentenced by a Kenyan High Court on Thursday, July 19, 2018 after she was found guilty of killing her boyfriend, Farid Mohammed.
Justice Jessie Lesiit during the ruling at the Milimani law court said she had no other option but to send Kamanda, who is now 24-year-old to the hangman’s noose, as she deliberately stabbed her boyfriend.
Justice Lesiit held that Kamande acted in malice adding that her actions proved the same.
