A man identified as Garba Aliyu was on Thursday, ordered by the Kaduna Chief Magistrates’ Court, to sweep the court premises for three weeks for stealing a woman’s purse.
The Prosecutor, Insp. Chidi Leo told the court that Aliyu criminally trespassed into the shop of one Adanna Ebuka pretending to buy a loaf of bread.
Leo said that the convict went into the complainant’s shop and stole her purse, adding that the purse was recovered during a police investigation.
The 30-year-old suspect was convicted and sentenced after pleading guilty to theft.
The Magistrate, Ibrahim Emmanuel said the convict’s plea had saved the court time, adding that the punishment would have been more severe if he had not pleaded guilty.
Emmanuel said the court took into consideration the fact that Aliyu was a first-time offender.
He advised the convict to desist from such acts in the future, stressing that the court frowned at acts of violence.
