Mechanic docked for stealing radiators
An auto mechanic, Chibuzor Emeka, was on Thursday docked in a Kaduna Chief Magistrates’ Court for stealing two of his customers’ car radiators worth N50,000.
The prosecution counsel, Insp Chidi Leo, told the court that the defendant committed the offence on June 27, at his workshop located at Narayi High Coast.
Mr Leo alleged that the defendant stole the radiators belonging to Christina James and Kingsley Simon.
The prosecutor added that the defendant collected the cars to service but stole the radiators, claiming they were stolen and that he later confessed to the crime.
But the defendant pleaded not guilty to the charge.
Magistrate Ibrahim Emmanuel admitted the defendant to bail of N100,000 with a surety in like sum. He said the surety must reside within the jurisdiction of the court and adjourned the matter until August 9 for hearing.
