An upper Area Court, sitting in Kasuwan Nama, on Thursday sentenced a 30-year-old tiler, Titus Yohana, to seven months imprisonment for stealing building materials worth N42, 000.

A panel of two Magistrates, Ghazali Adam and Hyacinth Dolnaan sentenced Yohana after he pleaded guilty to the offense.

The panel gave Yohana an option to pay a fine of N10,000. They said that the judgment would serve as a deterrent to those who would want to indulge in such criminal acts.

Earlier, the Prosecution Counsel, Monday Dabit told the court that the case was reported on Dec.1, 2021, at the ‘C’ Division Police station by Davou Pam, the complainant.

The prosecutor said that the offense is punishable under sections 333, 313, and 273 and 273 of the Plateau Penal Code law.
