THIS KIND OF ROBBERY.. ITS SO FUNNY BUT IT'S CRIME. EVEN WONDERING THE KIND OF TOY GUN USED. ANYWAY.
An Abeokuta Magistrates’ Court on
Tuesday remanded two men including a
teenage boy, Dayo Akinola, for allegedly
robbing a motorcyclist with a toy gun.
Akinola, 19, and his accomplice,
Damilola Aroyeun, 23, are facing trial on
a two-count of armed robbery and
possession of firearms.
The Magistrate, Mr Emmanuel Adekunte,
who did not take the pleas of the
accused, said they should be kept
behind bars at Ibara Prisons pending
advice from the State Director of Public
Prosecutions (DPP).
Earlier, the prosecutor, Insp. Augustine
Ozimini told the court that the accused
committed the offences on Dec. 8 at
about 10.09 p.m. at Isale Abetu in the
Ogun capital.
He said the two accused robbed one
Daniel Ogunseye of his motorcycle
valued at N200,000 with a toy gun.
“The duo accosted Ogunseye at a
deserted area and threatened to shoot
him with the toy gun if he failed to
surrender his motorcycle to them.’’
The offences, the prosecutor said,
contravened Sections 1(2), (a) , and 6
(b) of the Armed Robbery and Firearms
(Special Provisions) Act, Laws of
Nigeria.
The magistrate adjourned the case to
March 3 for mention.
