A Nasarawa State High Court sitting in Lafia has sentenced one Saidu Idi to d3ath by hanging for armed robbery and culpable homicide .\u00a0The judgment was delivered by the Chief Judge of the state, Justice Aisha Muhammed Usman, on Monday, February 2, 2026.\u00a0\u00a0Idi was arraigned on a three-count charge of criminal conspiracy, armed robbery, and culpable homicide in connection with an incident that occurred in 2015.\u00a0The court discharged him on the count of criminal conspiracy, but found him guilty of armed robbery and culpable homicide.\u00a0The Attorney-General of Nasarawa State and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Isaac Danladi, who prosecuted the case, described the judgment as a landmark decision.This is a case that has lasted for about 11 years. Both the prosecution and the defence were given the opportunity to present their cases, Danladi said.\u00a0“At the end of the day, the court discharged the defendant on conspiracy but found him guilty of armed robbery and culpable homicide. Judgment has now been served without fear or favour.”\u00a0He said the victim was a herdsman who was attacked in Kopuna area of a local government in the state, adding that evidence showed that the killing preceded the robbery.”The victim was first shot before he was dispossessed of his valuables and money, Danladi said, noting that the judgment would serve as a deterrent to criminal elements.\u00a0However, defense counsel Chidi Okorie Kanu, faulted the judgment and announced plans to challenge it at the appellate court.”The journey of this litigation does not stop here, Kanu said.”We appreciate the efforts of the Honourable Chief Judge of Nasarawa State Judiciary, and we are thankful that a case of over 11 years has come to an end at the trial court. But we are not satisfied with the judgment.\u00a0Kanu said the defence would study the judgment and file an appeal, citing alleged inconsistencies in the prosecutions case.”One of the prosecution witnesses, PW1, could not even remember making a statement at the State CID, he said.”If she could not remember making such a statement, how could she reliably remember seeing the defendant on the day of the incident?\u00a0He added that the matter would be taken to the Court of Appeal to test the propriety of the decision.\u00a0\u00a0The post Man sentenced to d3ath for k!lling herder in Nasarawa appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
