The prosecutor, Abdulateef Suliamon, had earlier told the court that the convict committed the offences on July 12, 2023, at about 11.40 am at Owe-Akala street, Oke- Aro, Akure
He said Adelabu stole one new unregistered red motorcycle with engine number: TA40/3181493 and chasis number BLOJA4090PN, valued at N550,000, belonging to one John Chinedu.
According to the prosecutor, the convict went to the complainant’s shop to steal the motorcycle at the point of sale, when the actual buyer was about paying for it.
Suliamon said that the offences contravened Sections 319(9)of the Criminal Code, Laws of Ondo State 2006
Adelabu who begged the court for leniency, admitted to committing the offences. He claimed to be under a spell.
