Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>A Kaduna High Court on Wednesday ordered the remand of two men, Abubakar Zubairu, 26, and Hamza Bala, 28, in a Correctional Facility for allegedly causing the death of one Illiyasu Audu by hitting him on the head with sticks.<\/p>\n

The defendants, who live at Badiko in Kaduna, were charged with criminal conspiracy and culpable homicide, to which they pleaded not guilty.<\/p>\n

Justice Amina Bello adjourned the case until Jan. 18, 2024, for ruling on the bail application made by the defence counsel, Jibrin Haliru and ordered the remand of the defendants.<\/p>\n

Earlier, the Prosecutor, Precious David, had told the court that the defendants and one Umar Dogo, now at large, on Nov. 11 attacked the deceased in his house at Tudun Wada, Kaduna.<\/p>\n

David alleged that the defendants used cutlasses and sticks to inflict injuries on the victim\u2019s head and other parts of his body.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe victim was rushed to Barau Dikko Teaching Hospital Kaduna, where he was confirmed dead,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p>\n

David alleged that the defendants also attempted to kill one Sani Rabiu by stabbing him with a knife in his stomach when he came to the rescue of the deceased.<\/p>\n

The defendants, however, denied committing the offences.<\/p>\n

According to the prosecutor, the offences contravene Sections 97 and 221 of the Penal Code of Kaduna State.<\/p>\n

The counsel to the defendants, however, moved a motion, with a five-paragraph affidavit, for the bail of his clients, urging the court to grant them bail on liberal terms.<\/p>\n

He stated that the defendants would be of good behaviour, would not jump bail and that credible sureties would be provided to meet their bail conditions.<\/p>\n
