A 27-year-old mechanic named Shedrack Zamdai has been sentenced to six months in prison by the Lugbe Grade I Area Court for raising a false alarm regarding the disappearance of his genitals.

The presiding judge, Aliyu Kagarko, delivered the verdict after Mr. Zamdai pleaded guilty to charges of defamation of character, inciting disturbance, and giving false information. In addition to the jail term, the court provided the option of paying a fine of N25,000.

The prosecution counsel, Stanley Nwaforaku, presented the case by highlighting how Mr. Zamdai’s actions were likely to incite public unrest. The defendant had accused individuals from Kurufuma village, specifically Rabiu Idris, Badamasi Hamisu, and Usman Abdullahi, of “stealing” his genitals, which led to his complaint at the Asokoro Police Station.

Following the complaint, a police investigation was conducted, which included a visit to Garki 2 Hospital to assess Mr. Zamdai’s condition. Medical assessments confirmed that he was physically well. As a result, the court found Mr. Zamdai guilty of offenses related to making false accusations.

The conviction was made under sections 391 (defamation of character), 114 (inciting disturbance), and 140 (giving false information) of the Penal Code.

This case serves as a reminder of the legal consequences associated with making false allegations, as it can not only disrupt public peace but also lead to legal repercussions for those involved.
