A Nigerian man was sentenced to death by the High Court in KualaLumpur, Malaysia, on Friday, November 30,  after he was found guilty of trafficking more than 700g of drugs into the country in May 2017.
 
Judge Datuk Azman Abdullah sent Sidrey Shalod Dike, 46, to the gallows after finding that the defence had failed to raise reasonable doubt against the prosecution’s case.
 
“After examining arguments by both the defence and the prosecution, the court found that the defence failed to raise reasonable doubt and the accused is found guilty and sentenced to death,” he said.
 
Dike, a part-time delivery man, was charged with trafficking 727.1g of methamphetamine at a lane at Jalan Segambut, Kg Segambut Luar at 2.30pm on May 3, 2017.
 
He was charged under Section 39B(1)(a) of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 and punishable under Section 39B(2) of the same law, which provides the mandatory death sentence upon conviction.
 
The prosecution was conducted by deputy public prosecutor Nadiah Isa, while Dike was represented by lawyer J. Kuldeep Kumar.

Last time I checked, Dike is also beared in Rivers State (eg, Tonto Dike). Rather than play the tribal cards (which makes you look really small), I’d advice that you condemn the act as a Nigerian problem which soils our names.

I am sure the Malaysian press identified him as a NIGERIAN.

It’s only in Nigeria we DIVIDE CRIMES into TRIBES - when it suits us!!!!
