A 28-year-old student-pastor, Akintunde
Olatunde, was today sentenced to three
years imprisonment for burglary by an
Osogbo Magistrates’ Court in Osun.
The magistrate, Mr Olusola Aluko, in his
judgment, said the convict should be kept
behind bars due to the magnitude of his
offence.
The prosecutor, Insp. Fagboyinbo
Abiodun, had earlier told the court that
the convict committed the offence on June
10 at about 5:00 p.m., in Omobolanle
area of Osogbo.
Abiodun said the convict conspired with
others now at large to break into the
apartments and shops in the
neighborhood where they carted away
some household and perishable
items.
The stolen soup ingredients like pepper,
tomatoes, palm oil valued N2,900 and
Indomie cartoon.
The suspect also broke into the house of
one Afolabi Temitayo and carted away his
television, antenna said to value at
N1,500 and a bedroom fridge.
He said the accused was a student-pastor
at a prayer ministry in Osogbo.
Abiodun said that the offence contravened
Sections 516, 413, 390, 411 and 390 (9)
of the Criminal Code, Cap 34, Vol. 11,
Laws of Osun, 2003.
