An Iranian businessman, who allegedly imported arms into Nigeria in 2010, has been found guilty by a court. But guess what? He was given five years for a crime said to potentially carry a life sentence.

Isn’t that too lenient for the nature of crime and the scale of insecurity such weapons have wrecked. Again, noting that Nigerians caught in other countries of serious crimes have not been spared?

Azim Aghajani was convicted for smuggling rockets, mortars and grenades, labeled as building materials, inside 13 shipping containers in 2010.

He was sentenced alongside a Nigerian, Usman Abbas Jega. Mr. Aghajani is alleged to be a member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards.
