Mr Areri convicted Ms Khalif in the first count on her own plea of guilty and set January 30 as a hearing date for the second count.
Ms Khalif said she crossed into Kenya to save her life from the cruelty meted on locals by Al-Shabaab in her home country.
The magistrate ruled that the accused be repatriated to Somalia upon completion of jail sentence.
