Sunday Omoloye, a man, who allegedly hypnotised a 17-year-old boy and stole his N230, 000, was Monday brought before an Igbosere Magistrates’ Court, Lagos.

 

According to The Nation, Sunday Omoloye, 32, of no fixed address, was arraigned before Mrs A. T. Omoyele on a three-count charge of fraud, obtaining by false pretence and stealing.

 

Prosecuting Sergeant Cyriacus Osuji said Omoloye and others at large committed the alleged offence on May 31, 2017 at Ikate in Eti-Osa Local Government Area.

 

The defendant, he alleged, fraudulently obtained the sum of N230, 000, from the teenager, who was by his mother to deposit the money into the bank account of her customer.

 

Osuji said: “When the teenager got to the bank, the place was filled up so he decided to try another branch, but as he came out of the bank, the defendant and others at large met and touched him.

“He immediately lost his senses and later found himself with the defendant and others at Aboki Estate, Ikate, close to Eleguish Beach.

“As soon as he regained his senses, he raised the alarm and passersby apprehended the defendant while the others fled.”

 

‎According to the prosecutor, the offences are punishable under Sections 411, 314 (1b) and 287, of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015.

 

The defendant pleaded not guilty.

 

Magistrate Omoyele granted him N200, 000 bail with two sureties in the like sum.
