Man Bags 6 Months Imprisonment For Stealing Fish And Noodles In Osun

Ogunlusi Abass was earlier today sentenced to 6 months imprisonment by an Osogbo Magistrates’ court in Osun State for stealing dry fish and seven pieces of noodles, with a tin of three crown milk on January 28, 2017.

Police prosecutor, Inspector Fagboyinbo Abiodun, told the court that Abass also stole 3 beverages and 3 pieces of golden Penny semovita, valued at N4,630.

He explained that the offence committed by Abass were contrary to and punishable under section 411 and section 390 of the Criminal Code Cap 34 Vol II. Laws of Osun State of Nigeria; 2002.

The accused, however, pleaded guilty with deep remorse over his action.

Chief Magistrate, Olusola Aluko, in his ruling thereafter sentenced Abass to six months imprisonment or a fine of N10,000.

Abass was, however, unable to meet the fine charge and was later led to Ilesha prison custody to serve his six months prison terms.
