Nigerian Jailed Over Stolen World Cup Tickets by migareigns(m): 5:33pm On Jun 18, 2010 |
A special World Cup court has sentenced a Nigerian man to three years in prison for being in possession of 30 stolen tickets in South Africa. Kunle Benjamin was stopped in his car in the capital, Pretoria, when police noticed him driving "erratically". "As the suspect was acting suspiciously police decided to search him and the 30 tickets were discovered," said police spokeswoman Sally de Beer. More than 50 courts have been set up to deal with World Cup related crimes. Mr Benjamin was unable to tell the court how he came to be in possession of the tickets, police say. Fifa say they discovered the tickets had been bought by two men on the internet, but their addresses could not be verified. "This is yet again an example of the effectiveness of having dedicated teams, to deal with World Cup-related offences," said Ms de Beer. Fifa has urged fans only to buy tickets from authorised outlets. http://www.gistboard.com/content/nigerian-jailed-over-stolen-world-cup-tickets |
