An 18-year-old man, Thomas Friday was on Monday sentenced to 30 days imprisonment by a Federal High Court sitting in Jos, Plateau State for possession of Indian hemp.

The convict, who pleaded guilty to a one count charge, was caught with 75.9 grammes of Cannabis sativa, commonly called, Indian hemp.

Friday was arrested on Sept. 26 at Shendam in Jos and arraigned on Nov. 6.

While testifying before the court, the Prosecuting Counsel, Sarah Oketola, called one witness, Etsu Bamshi, an Exhibit Keeper with the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, who tendered the following exhibits: packing of substance form, certificate of test analysis, scientific aid form and the accused person’s confessional statement.

The Counsel to the convict, Miss E. A. Bulus, pleaded for the mitigation of sentence.

Justice Lewis Allagoa, after hearing both parties, sentenced Friday to 30 days imprisonment without an option of fine.
