Court Sentences Internet Fraudster to 35 Years Imprisonment in Kwara via thisdaylive
A Kwara State High Court sitting in Ilorin on Tuesday sentenced an internet fraudster, Temitope Ajayi Charles, to 35 years imprisonment without an option of fine.
The judge also agreed that the EFCC had proved its case beyond reasonable doubt, noting that the evidence of the only prosecution witness, Olamide Sadiq, who is an operative of the commission was very strong and reliable. He however rejected the testimonies of the convict where he claimed that the police brought him to the office of the EFCC on the day of his arrest following his inability to pay the money they requested.
Earlier, the defence counsel, Mr. A.B Bakare, in his allocutus, urged Justice Abdulgafar to temper justice with mercy, insisting that his client is a first time offender.
