A 25-year-old man, Mallam Bello Umar Dan Baba, of Gidan Gazo village in Sokoto State, has bagged a 10-year-jail term for beating his father to death.
Dan Baba had been standing trial before a Sokoto High Court since 2002, accused of killing his father after hitting the 72-year-old man on the head with a Fulani stick.



The accused, who had been in detention for the past eight years, was charged with culpable homicide, not punishable with death under section 224 of the penal code.

The presiding judge, Justice Saidu Muhammed Sifawa, found him guilty and sentenced him to 10 years imprisonment without an option of fine. He, however, ordered that the terms should run from 2002 when the accused was brought to his court.

Justice Sifawa stated that his decision was based on the fact that the accused had been in detention for too long.

Guess he will say ''It is the devil's work''
How can you be as heartless as beatin someone to death,
Some people have a heart of STONE, no human feelings at all.
