A 30-year-old man identified as Hassan Jamilu, who was paraded at a Gudu Upper Area Court sitting in Abuja on Monday, was sentenced to 12 weeks in prison for breaking into Shoprite’s cash room and attempting to break the safe.
Alhaji Umar Kagarko, who is the court judge, gave Jamilu an option of fine in the sum of N30,000 and warned him to desist from committing crimes, adding that the plaintiff, as a private organisation should file a civil matter for compensation.
