A Gudu Upper Area Court in the Federal Capital Territory on Monday sentenced two men to six weeks each in prison for stealing fish from a pond. 22-year-old Samuel Mamman and 23-year-old Jaffaru Bashir, have been sentenced to six weeks each in prison by a Gudu Upper Area Court in the Federal Capital Territory on Monday for stealing fish from a pond.
 
The convicts, both of Berger Yard junction, Games Village, Abuja, pleaded guilty to the charges of criminal conspiracy and theft.
 


The offences contravened sections 97 and 287 of the Penal Code.
 
Umar Kagarko, the Presiding Officer of the court, who sentenced the men after they both pleaded guilty and begged for leniency, however, gave them a fine option of N4, 000 each and also advised the convicts to desist from engaging in criminal activities and engage in honest paid job.
 
He said the parties could appeal to the High Court within 30 days if they were dissatisfied with the verdict.
 
News Agency of Nigeria reported that the prosecutor, Rebecca Odunjide, told the court that Patrick Okoh of Plot 112 AMAC Layout, Lugbe, reported the matter at the Wuye Police Station on March 27.
 
Ms. Odunjide said the convicts were caught using a fishing net to steal fish from the pond.
