Daudi Nzomo has been sentenced to 12 years in prison for domestic violence. Nzomo was last week caught on video beating his wife, Winifred Mwende, for allegedly cheating.
The Makueni man became a wanted criminal after the clip went viral and Kenyans begged the government to arrest him. Delivering the judgment, Makueni Senior Principal Magistrate James Mwaniki said he considered Nzomo’s criminal record that shows that he has been violent.

The 35-year-old was arrested in Nguuni, Kibwezi West Constituency after Kenyans’ plea. His mother confessed that he’s been a violent man for a longtime.
Police also arrested those who recorded the clip and watched as Mwende received blows and kicks from an angry Nzomo.
