A Magistrates’ Court in Kafanchan, Kaduna State, on Thursday, ordered the remand of a 20-year-old tailor, David Na’ Allah, in a correctional centre for alleged stealing.
The defendant, whose house address was not given, was arraigned by the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corp (NSCDC) for alleged criminal trespass, mischief and theft.
The NSCDC prosecutor, Marcus Audu, told the court that the complainant, Kazah Gaiya, who resides at Zonkwa, reported the matter at the Corp’s office in Kafanchan on Aug.8.
Audu said the defendant allegedly broke into the complainant’s provision store and made away with items worth N55, 000 on two separate occasions.
