The defendants and the housemaid.<\/p>\n<p>The \u00a0defendants were the last two adult that got in contact with the housemaid before her death.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe \u00a0hanging was staged and the deceased was hung by a rope and the position the police found her body did not depict suicide as her feet were on the floor,\u201d She said.<\/p>\n<p>The judge further held that the defendants tampered with the evidence as they had already embalmed the body which made it difficult for the toxicologist to carry out an autopsy as the cause of death was uncertain.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDr Sunday Sokunle-soyemi, testified before the court that the body of the deceased was embalmed before she was brought for autopsy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a result, the cause of death can not be ascertain as the body should not have been embalmed before autopsy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the circumstance of this case where medical evidence is inconclusive, the court shall infer evidence on their evidences available.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe doctor said that the toxicology could not be performed because the defendants had embalmed the deceased \u00a0before embalmment could be carried out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe defendants are the last couple to be seen with the deceased. The circumstantial evidence is overwhelming.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is \u00a0also imperative to say that the evidence of the investigative police officer (IPO) on what he saw at the seen can never be hearsay. Evidence \u00a0of an IPO is never to be referred to as hearsay as contended by the defence in this case,\u201d Ogala said.<\/p>\n<p>The judge, thereafter, \u00a0sentenced the first defendant to 14 years for involuntary manslaughter and 5 years for attempt to pervert the cause of Justice and misconduct as regards to corpse and ordered that it must be run concurrently.<\/p>\n<p>The judge also sentenced \u00a0the second defendant to two years imprisonment, following the allocutus of the defence counsel.<\/p>\n<p>Mr O.I. Barrah, in his allocutus, prayed the court to temper Justice with mercy as the defendants were young couple and had two little children ages two and one.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe plead with the court to temper \u00a0Justice with mercy. They are young couple and their children are just one and two years respectively.The court should consider the ages of the children.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe defendants do not have any criminal record prior to this. I pray my lord \u00a0to show them mercy,\u201d Barrah said.<\/p>\n<p>Reports have it that the prosecution counsel, Mr Sule Yusuf did not make any submission to the court, following the allocutus of the defence counsel.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecution has charged the defendants with an \u00a0eight-count amendment bordering on conspiracy, involuntary manslaughter, misconduct with regards to corpse, accessary after the fact to felonies and accessary after the fact to murder.<\/p>\n<p>The prosecution submitted\u00a0that the \u00a0defendants committed the offence on April 20, 2020, at No.18, Ogundola St , Bariga, Lagos State.<\/p>\n<p>Defence had made a no-case submission when\u00a0 prosecution closed its case on October 12, 2021, after calling eight witnesses.<\/p>\n<p>The court turned down the application on Nov. 24, 2021, for lack of merit, and asked the defendants to open their defence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Ikeja High Court on Thursday sentenced a couple \u00a0Fortune and Stephen Nwankwo to 14 \u00a0and two years imprisonment respectively for the involuntary murder of \u00a0their 19-year-old housemaid, Ms Joy Adole.
