A 29-year-old man, Joshua Udoh, was on Monday brought before an Ogudu Magistrates’ Court in Lagos for allegedly stealing a motorcycle, valued at N235,000.
Udoh, of no fixed address, is facing a two-count charge of conspiracy and stealing.
The Prosecutor, Insp. Lucky Ihiehie, told the court that Udo and others still at large, committed the offences on Dec. 28, 2018 at 11.00 p.m. at Owode Elede area of Mile 12, near Lagos.
Ihiehie said that the defendant and his accomplices conspired to steal a Bajaj Boxer Motorcycle marked KTU 246 QH, belonging to one Mercy Ibok.
He said the defendant was caught by men of the vigilance group in the area and handed over to the police.
The prosecutor said that the offences contravened Sections 287 and 411 of Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.
The defendant, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The Magistrate, Mrs E. Kubeinje, granted Udo bail in the sum of N50, 000 with two sureties in like sum.
Kubeinje ordered that the sureties should reside within the court’s jurisdiction and should show evidence of one year tax payment to the Lagos State Government.
She adjourned the case until April 23 for further hearing.
