The Kano State High Court, presided over by Justice Nasir Saminu, has sentenced a man to death by hanging for armed robbery, on Wednesday 7th January.

The convict, one Abdurrahman Yakubu of Bele Local Government Area in Nassarawa State, was found guilty of multiple counts of armed robbery with dangerous weapons.

His victims included a woman identified as Barrister Hajara Lawal Ahmad, from whom he stole a car and an unspecified sum of money.

The presiding judge, Justice Saminu, said the court found that the government lawyer, Barrister Umar Yakubu, proved his case beyond reasonable doubt and thus dismissed the defense put forward by Abdurrahman.

The court further found that firearms recovered from Abdurrahman were illegal and were being put to criminal uses; hence, he was now to be executed by hanging.
