A 65-year-old suspected burglar, Adekanmi Popoola, has been arraigned before a Chief Magistrate Court, sitting in Igbajo, Boluwaduro local government area of the State of Osun, for allegedly stealing a water pumping machine.
Popoola was accused of breaking into the house of one Femi Falola to steal one DAB electric motor 1horse power valued at N20,000.
According to the charge sheet obtained by OSUN DEFENDER, the defendant committed the offence on September 16, 2022, at No 16, Royal Estate, Igbajo, State of Osun.
