Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>An Osun Magistrate Court sitting in Ilesa has remanded six men over alleged offences bordering on conspiracy, assault, breach of peace, threat to life and robbery.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe defendants attacked one Chief Alake Emmanuel, beating him with sticks, tearing his clothes and inflicting injuries on him,\u201d the prosecutor told the court.<\/p>\n

Alleging that the actions of the defendants caused a breach of peace, he noted that they reportedly used sticks and cutlasses during the attack.<\/p>\n

According to the prosecution, \u201cthe accused persons also forcefully seized the victim\u2019s Android phone and threatened to kill him while armed with dangerous weapons\u201d.<\/p>\n
