Man sues new couple for Adultery.
« on: April 08, 2014, 06:07:47 PM »
A farmer, Jafar Umar, and his new wife,  Rukayat, were on Tuesday arraigned in  a Kosubosu Area Court in Kwara for alleged adultery.
The duo were arraigned for  adultery  contrary to sections  387 and 388 of the Penal Code Law  following a complaint by one Bashiru Haruna.
Bashiru  said he married Rukayat on Jan.  5, 2013 at Kuburufu Village in the Baruten Local Government Area of Kwara.
The complainant said sometimes after the marriage,  Rukayat took  permission to travel to Shiya Village and  failed to return home since then.
“ To my  painful surprise,  I learnt  that Rukayat  had remarried and had  conceived for  another man bearing Jafar without seeking a divorce from me,’’ he said.
The complainant   sought the  relief of the court to grant an order enabling him to  claim the dowry and other expenses incurred in  the  marriage.
Jafar, on his part,  admitted that a relationship existed between him and Rukayat, adding that she had a child for him.
Rukayat, however, denied the allegation.
In his ruling, the presiding judge, Mallam Ahmed Yahaya, admitted the two accused persons to bail in the sum of N100, 000  with  a surety each in like sum.
