Wada alleged that on the said date at 1:40 p.m., the complainant, one Abdulhamid, had put his Infinix handset to charge, in the shop where both of them carried out their businesses, and also kept two sim cards close to the handset.

“The defendant criminally trespassed into the shop and made away with the phone, he was sighted on the CCTV camera in the shop.

Wada noted that the offense contravened Section 133 of the Kano State Sharia Law.
