Earlier, the prosecutor, Zannan Dalhatu, had told the court that Danfulani was arrested by a police patrol team, led by Insp. Abu Muhammed, in Utako Abuja, on April 14.
“On the same date, Danfulani was arrested in possession of iron rods.
“During police investigation, he confessed to the crime of being in possession of stolen item,’’ Dalhatu said.
He said that the offence contravened the provision of Section 319 of the Penal Code.
