Former News Anchor Esther Arunga sentenced to 10 months in parole.

Former KTN news anchor Esther Arunga has been sentenced to 10 months in jail. However, she was immediately freed on parole. This after she admitted to lying to Australian police about what led to her son’s death.

After pleading guilty to charges of being accessory to the murder of her three-year-old son, she faced up to 25 years in jail, as per the Australian law. This sentence thus seems light.
