A Kenyan man who evaded sentencing in the United States for 13 years following his conviction over a fatal drunk-driving crash has been extradited to California to face justice.
The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) facilitated the extradition of Sancho Kibutu, who was convicted of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated by the Superior Court of California, Madera County, on September 19, 2013.
Kibutu was handed over to US authorities in Nairobi by officers from the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) before being flown to California.
