The defendants, identified as Qudus Jokogbola, Siri Olawale, Edu Shakirat, Fausat Mohammed, Kafayat Ahmed, and Opere Morenike, were arraigned on counts of conspiracy, breach of peace, and causing bodily harm, as alleged by the police.
According to Prosecutor Inspector Samuel Isholla, the incident occurred on February 5, 2024, around 1:30 p.m. at Oba Akintoye Market, Lagos Island, Lagos State, involving the six defendants and two other individuals who remain at large.
During the court proceedings, the defendants, represented by counsel S. Ade Oshodi and Ademola Olabiyi, denied the charges brought against them.
Prosecutor Isholla detailed the accusations, asserting that the defendants forcibly pushed and dragged Anjorin-Lawal, resulting in physical injuries and disturbance of public peace.
The charges filed against the defendants reportedly violate various sections of the criminal laws of Lagos State, 2015, carrying penalties including a two-year jail term for causing injury to a person’s reputation or property.
Despite their plea of not guilty, the defendants’ legal representative, Oshodi, pleaded for their release on bail, highlighting their status as market traders.
Magistrate A.A. Paul granted each defendant bail in the sum of N200,000, with one surety each who must be Lagos State residents and provide evidence of tax payment.
Pending the fulfillment of bail conditions, the defendants were ordered to be remanded in the custody of the Nigerian Correctional Services (NCoS).
The case is scheduled for further mention on March 11.
