Teenager arraigned for theft
The Lagos police have arraigned a teenager, identified as Lekan Wasiu, for attempted theft of GAC SUV car.
The police arraigned Wasiu before an Ogudu Magistrates Court. During his arraignment, police prosecutor, Insp. Donjour Perezi, said Wasiu committed the offence on May 1 at Aderemi Akeju Street, PowerLine, Ifako. Perezi added the car was worth N14 million.
He said, “One Franklin Ngaba reported that he went for a meeting and parked his SUV car on Aderemi Akeju Street, Ifako, Lagos, when his host, Tajudeen Gafari, came to ask who owned said vehicle.
“Tajudeen said the defendant had opened the car and was about to drive it away when he was caught in the act,” Perezi said.
He said the offence contravened the provisions of Section 406 (2) of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.”
In his ruling following Wasiu’s arraignment, Magistrate M.O Tanimola granted him a bail of N500, 0000.
He equally adjourned the case until June 23 for mention.
