A loud explosion has just occurred in Kurudu, a community on the outskirts of Abuja.
The cause of the explosion is still unclear as a resident said it
could have been caused by a bomb or dynamites used in blasting rocks in
the area.
The explosion has caused panic in Kurudu, Jikoyi and other adjoining areas as residents scampered for safety.
A resident of an Army Estate in Kurudu, told PREMIUM TIMES that
soldiers simply locked the gate and prevented anyone from going out upon
hearing the loud explosion.
Details later…
23
year old Precious Chineme Nwoko (pictured above) has been sentenced to
27 years imprisonment by a Cambodian Court for drug trafficking in
Cambodia.
Police sources say Nwoko was a
ringleader in a heroin smuggling cartel in Cambodia. He was arrested
last month for handing a backpack containing 2.2 kilos (4.8 pounds) of
heroin to two women, 41year old Australian Yoshe Ann Taylor and 19 year
old French Charlene Savarino, for onward transportation to an
unidentified man in Australia. Both women were however caught and
arrested.
At their trial last month, it was
discovered that 19 year old Savarino was Nwoko’s girlfriend and they
worked closely in smuggling heroin. 41 year old Taylor had also
previously helped to smuggle heroin using the backpack.
Judge Kor Vandy at Phnom Penh Municipal Court who presided over their
case today said Nwoko and the two women were guilty of ‘cross-border
smuggling of illegal drugs and thereafter sentenced Nwoko’s 19year old
girlfriend Savarino to 25 years in jail, while 41 year old Taylor was
handed 23 years. They all denied the drug belonged to them.
