Court Jails Fake bosom Cancer Patients

A Magistrate’s Court sitting in Minna, Niger State capital, on Wednesday jailed two fake bosom cancer patients, Ngozi John, and Chioma Ibe, for extorting money from members of the public.

The two women were arraigned before the Magistrate Court Three presided over by Alhaji Nasiru Muazu.

Police Prosecutor, Abdullahi Alhaji, told the court that the women were charged for conspiracy, cruelty to children and unlawful compulsory labour and extortion.

The prosecutor said the offences committed by the suspects were punishable under Section 230, 280 and 290 of the penal code law.

Although John and Ibe pleaded guilty when their pleas were taken, they urged the magistrate to be lenient with them.

In his judgment, Muazu said the court lacked jurisdiction to try the suspects for conspiracy.

He, however, sentenced them to 18 months imprisonment each for the three-count charge of compulsory labour, cruelty to children and extortion of money or payment of N7,000 as fine.

The court also ordered that the begging proceeds of N49,050 found in possession of John and Ibe at the time of arrest be forfeited to the government.
