Tegbedaye who was standing trial for culpable homicide was accused of killing the deceased with a Dane gun on 11th September, 2019.
The particulars of the offence in the matter with suit number HCL/66/2019 according to the State Chief Judge, Justice Nasiru Ajanah ruled that, there was not enough prosecutorial evidence to continue with the trial of the defendant. Justice Ajanah noted that it was difficult to link the purported death of the said deceased to the defendant as there was neither proof of anybody’s death nor evidence before the court to indicate that the defendant committed the offence.
“There is no evidence linking the defendant with the commission of the offence as the two witnesses that testified were not eyewitnesses but Police Officers that carried out investigation and were only narrating what they were told. In the circumstances, it becomes impossible to proceed against the defendant as there is no further evidence to be given by the prosecution.
Good and that's the way to go cos judiciary is the last hope of a common man
