A Chief Magistrates’ Court in Kaduna on Thursday ordered that a 36-year-old driver, Mustapha Aminu, receive 15 strokes of the cane for assaulting a police officer on duty.

The convict, who resides in Ungwan Sanusi, Kaduna, was found guilty of hitting a police officer, Sergeant Adamu Maigari, on the head with a log of wood.

Aminu pleaded guilty to the charge.

“This will also serve as a warning to others who may consider committing such crimes. I hereby order a court official to administer 15 strokes of the cane,” he ruled.

Emmanuel warned Aminu to desist from such acts and focus on his job to become a responsible member of society.

Earlier, the prosecutor, Inspector Chidi Leo, told the court that on January 29, at about 2 p.m., the driver assaulted and injured a police officer while he was performing his duty.

Leo explained that the driver had been driving recklessly, and when the officer stopped him, he struck the officer with a log of wood.

He added that the offence contravened Section 237 of the Kaduna State Penal Code, 2017.
