 At the resumed sitting on Wednesday,  counsel to the EFCC, Innocent Mbachie, reviewed the facts of the case and tendered in evidence the extra-judicial statements of the defendants, photographs of the defendants, samples of the minerals, photographs of the truck and the forensic report received from the Nigeria Geological Survey Agency on the analysis of the minerals.  


The defendants,  represented by I.A Ahmed,   raised no objection to the admissibility of the exhibits tendered by the prosecution; hence, they were admitted in evidence by the court.


Delivering judgment, Justice Anyadike held that the prosecution had proved its case beyond reasonable doubt and pronounced them guilty as charged.


Consequently, the judge sentenced  Hong to one year imprisonment with an option of fine of N2million, while Yi on the other hand was sentenced to one year imprisonment with an option of N1.5million.
