Accused Person ESCAPES From Court

There was a mild drama at the Magistrate Court in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State capital when an accused person, Joseph Francis, sneaked out of the court on Friday. It was gathered that Francis disappeared from the court premises when the magistrate refused to grant him bail.

An official of the court, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said, “Francis secretly left the courtroom. He was going towards Adebayo before a search party tracked him down around Fajuyi Park.”

The accused later pleaded for leniency, saying, “I don’t want to go back to prison. That place was not good for me. Let me go home. I will not do that again.”

Earlier in his ruling, Magistrate Bayode Owoeye, ordered that the accused should be remanded in prison, pending the consideration of his bail application.
