Man in court for throwing urine on woman in Abuja

A 35-year-old man, Isaiah Abadia, has been arraigned in a Gudu Upper Area Court, Abuja, for allegedly pouring urine on a woman.

The suspect is facing two-count charge of assault and public nuisance.

The police prosecutor, Fidelis Ogbobe , had earlier told the court that the complainant, Miss Jimoh Ozochi, of Lugbe reported the matter at Garki Police Station on June 19.

Ogbobe said that the incident happened same day in Area 1, Garki.

He said that the complainant alleged that while she was passing along Area 1, Garki, the defendant threw a plastic leather bag containing urine and food remnants on her.

Ogbobe said, “He took to his heels after that until he was chased and arrested.”

The prosecutor explained further that the offences contravene Sections 265 and 198 of Penal Code.

The defendant, however, pleaded not guilty to the charges.

“I did it, but out of mistake,’’ he said.
