After five years in custody, the celebrity kidnapper Evans got sentenced to life imprisonment by Justice Hakeem Oshodi of the Lagos high court, Ikeja
Justice Hakeem finds Chukwudimeme Onwuamadike (alias Evans) and two of his accomplices - Uche Amadi, and Okwuchukwu Nwachukwu, guilty of two counts of criminal conspiracy and kidnapping.
The judge convicted the three men after finding that the state government provided overwhelming evidence to prove its case against them.
The three other co-defendants, Ogechi Uchechukwu, Chilaka Ifeanyi, and Victor Aduba were discharged of the alleged Crimes. The court declared that the prosecution didn’t succeed in proving their guilt beyond reasonable grounds.
Evans was arrested by the embattling police cops and his team in 2017.
He has the right to appeal the judgement.
