Man gets community service sentence for attempting to defraud beer seller
Kingsley Emeahera, a resident of Abuja, is reportedly serving two weeks community service after attempting to defraud a beer seller of N5,000.
He was ordered by Judge Abdulwahab Mohammed at the Kubwa Grade1 Area Court on Friday, to clean the court’s premises and sign an undertaking at the court’s registry that he’ll be of good behaviour for the next three months.
He was charged before the court for criminal intimidation, causing mischief and wrongful restrain.
The court heard that the suspect bought beer worth N3,150 and played a bet game of N1,800 at the Monotechy Guest House.
When the suspect was asked to refund the money, he allegedly became violent and broke 14 pieces of glass cups valued N3,500.
Kingsley pleaded guilty to the charges, but said he was under the influence of alcohol.
He pleaded for mercy and was ordered by the judge to do community service.
