Drama As 3 Okada Men Threatened To Kill Man After Forcefully Kidnapping His Wife For $3x In Lagos
The men, who also threatened to kill the woman’s husband, were arraigned before an Igbosere magistrate’s court, Lagos.
The defendants reside at number 9, Bank Road, Ikoyi, Lagos and are standing trial on a three-count charge of conspiracy, abduction and threat to life.
They, however, pleaded not guilty to all the charges.
The police prosecutor, Inspector Ingobo, had earlier told the court that the defendants committed the offences on July 4, at about 11:30p.m. at 9, Flood Gate Close, Alasia Ajah, Lagos.
Ingobo further explained that the defendants conspired and abducted one Hadiza with the intention of having se-xual intercourse with her.
He said, “The trio abducted Goma from the custody of her husband, one Seriki Goma, with the intent of having se-xual intercourse with her.
“They abducted Goma without her consent.”
He said that on July 19, one of the defendants, David, threatened to kill Mr. Goma through phone calls.
The prosecutor said the offences are punishable under Sections 56, 269 and 411 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.
However, the Magistrate, Martins Owunmi, granted them N100,000 bail each with two sureties each in like sum.
According to the judge, the sureties must be gainfully employed and show evidence of tax payment to the Lagos State Government. The magistrate adjourned the case until August 22, for mention.
