A middle-aged man known as Tersoo Terna, has been sentenced to death by hanging by a High Court in Makurdi, the Benue State capital for stealing a Toyota Hilux Jeep belonging to a clergyman.

Terna,  was convicted on Thursday on the charges of criminal conspiracy and armed robbery.

The state prosecuting counsel, Mrs Jean Abba Ewurum, told the court that the convict and three others now at large, conspired, attacked and robbed one Reverend Peter Azuana of NKST at Mkar in Gboko Local Government Area of Benue State in May 2012.

Delivering judgment on the matter, the trial judge – Justice Adam Onum, said with all the evidences presented before him, a case of criminal conspiracy was established against the offender and accordingly sentenced him to death by hanging.

The judge however refused to listen to the plea of leniency by the counsel for the convict, Mrs C K Umburga.
