The presiding Judge, Abdulaziz Ibrahim, also ordered the convicts to pay a fine of N1,000 each.

The Prosecutor, Insp. Esther Bishen, told the court that the convicts were arrested by a team of policemen on patrol to enforce the 24-hour curfew imposed by the state government to contain the coronavirus pandemic.

Bishen said the convicts were caught riding their motorcycles in Kafanchan town.

Bishen said the offence contravened Section 115 of the Kaduna State Penal Code Law, 2017.

When the charges were read to them, they all pleaded guilty and begged the court for leniency.

The prosecutor urged the court to try them summarily in line with section 25 (8) of the Administration of Criminal Justice Law.
