In view of that development, the prosecution counsel, A. M. Labaran applied for a date of trial which was adjourned to today for trial. At resumed hearing today, the prosecution counsel, Zarami Muhammad informed the court that the matter was slated for hearing and his witnesses were in court. But, the defence counsel, Musa Bala told the court that his client will change his plea. The charge was read to him again and he pleaded guilty. Zarami therefore urged the court to convict and sentence the accused summarily relying by the provision of section 187 (1) (2) of criminal procedure code. In his judgement, Justice Jauro found the accused guilty as charged and sentenced him summarily to one month imprisonment in accordance with Section 320 and 322 of the Penal Code Laws. However, considering the plea of his counsel having refounded the proceed of the crime (N840, 000.00) as well as a first time offender and a bread winner of his family, he was given an option of Five Thousand Naira (N5,000).
