Pay N2000 or go to 6 Months Jail - Court sentence Mother and 3 Kids

(1/1)

flukky01:
An Asaba Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday sentenced a 44-year-old woman, Mrs Helen Nwokobia and her three children to six months imprisonment each for assaulting their landlord.

The children are Chukwudi Nwokobia, 20, Emeka Nwokobia, 17 and Ify Nwokobia, 23.

The court, however, gave the convicts an option of N2, 000 as fine each.

The Magistrate, Miss Patircia Okoh said that the prosecution had convinced the court beyond reasonable doubt that the four convicts actually committed the offence.

Okoh said  that the evidence presented before the court by the prosecution had assisted the court to pass the judgment.

She warned the convicts to henceforth be of good behaviour, adding the court would not be lenient on them in the future if arraigned for a similar offence.
