Court Orders Man To Sweep Court Premises For Three Hours Over Food Theft

In a report we have sighted online, a Magistrates’ Court in Abuja ordered a 30-year-old laborer, identified as Yusuf Muazu to sweep the court premises for three hours.

This comes after the accused reportedly stole a bowl of food and a cup of cold water. The Police charged Muazu of no fixed address for criminal trespass and theft.

This young man had nothing to say than to plead guilty as well as beg the court to temper justice with mercy.

In his submission, he said;

“I plead for mercy, I want the court to forgive me. I was really hungry and I entered the woman’s’ kitchen and saw a pot of food and I fetched some and also a cup of water.”

In her ruling, she said;

“The court having found the convict guilty of the offence and him being remorseful and not wasting the time of the court in admitting to his crime, is hereby ordered to engage in three hours community service.

You are hereby ordered to pick up all the dirt’s and clean up the premises of Life Camp Magistrates’ Court for three hours under the supervision of the court registrar.”
