Eight docked for cutting dead man’s parts in Ibadan

In Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State, in an Iyaganku Magistrates' Court on Friday, eight accused were docked.

Indicted for allegedly chopping a deceased man's body parts were the defendants Waheed Tijani, 50, Taiwo Yunusa, 38, Afeez Ariyo, 43, Kazeem Tejumaje, 47, Abdulrasheed Tanimola, 55, Muritala Kewulere, 65, Dauda Azeez, 52, and Abdulhakeem Oriola, 51.

Additionally, conspiracy and contempt for the dead were brought against them.

The defendants are believed to have committed the crime on December 13 in the Gbedun neighbourhood of Ibadan, according to the prosecutor, Philip Amusan.

He claimed that the defendants unlawfully removed the deceased Nimotalahi Amidu's head and other body parts from his corpse.

According to Amusan, the offence broke Sections 517 and 242(1) of the Oyo State Criminal Laws of 2000.

However, the accused entered a not guilty plea to the accusation.

They were granted bail in the amount of N50,000 apiece, along with one like-amount surety, by Magistrate O. A. Akande.

The hearing was postponed to February 22, 2023 by the judge.
