Close to 5,500 people have been formerly arraigned on adultery charges in the past six years - including nearly 900 in 2014 [AP] South Korea's Constitutional Court has struck down a 60-year-old statute outlawing adultery under which violators faced up to two years in prison. The nine-member bench ruled by seven to two that the 1953 law was unconstitutional in a judgement handed down on Thursday. "Even if adultery should be condemned as immoral, state power should not intervene in individuals' private lives," said presiding justice Park Han-Chul. It was the fifth time the apex court had considered the constitutional legality of the legislation which had made South Korea one of the few non-Muslim countries to regard marital infidelity as a criminal act. In the past six years, close to 5,500 people have been formerly arraigned on adultery charges - including nearly 900 in 2014. But the numbers had been falling, with cases that end in prison terms increasingly rare. Whereas 216 people were jailed under the law in 2004, that figure had dropped to 42 by 2008, and since then only 22 have found themselves behind bars, according to figures from the state prosecution office. The downward trend was partly a reflection of changing societal trends in a country where rapid modernisation has frequently clashed with traditionally conservative norms. http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2015/02/south-korean-court-legalises-adultery-150226054724879.html |

Anambra State Commis s ioner for Health, Dr Joe Akabuike, yesterday said the state currently has 110 identifiable cases of leprosy across its 21 local government areas. Akabuike disclosed this in a press conference at Awka to mark the World Leprosy Day in Anambra State. He said last year the state registered 95 people, who were infected by leprosy and had been confined, and were receiving treatment in two rehabilitation centres in the state. He added that fresh cases of the disease were also identified among 15 citizens of the state, making a total of 110 people who were currently suffering the disease and were being catered for in rehabilitation centres. Akabuike stated that leprosy was one of the oldest diseases known to man and is named after a Norwegian doctor, Gerhard Henrik Hansen, who debunked the prevailing notion then that the disease was hereditary. On how the disease could be contracted, Akabuike said: “It is caused by bacteria and mainly affects the skin, peripheral nerves and mucus membrane of the upper respiratory tract. And transmission is through droplets of coughing and sneezing and it has an incubation period of two years before it fully manifests.” He said they were currently trying to create awareness so people would know leprosy has not totally disappeared and also help prevent the disease from spreading. The commissioner added that as part of activities to mark the celebration, the ministry and its officials would visit the two rehabilitation centres in Nnewi and Okija to celebrate with the inmates and to also let them know that it is no longer a terminal disease if they routinely take their drugs. He assured that the disease was fully preventable and curable, adding that people who find any trace of the disease should visit the TBL centres, which are in all the local government areas of the state for free cure and advise. On why the disease has not been wiped out of the country, Akabuike attributed it to the attitude of carriers who refuse to report themselves for fear of stigmatisation and quarantine, as some people prefer to die with it than being identified. http://nationalmirroronline.net/new/anambra-records-110-leprosy-cases/ |

A young man, Akeem Amoo has broken his spinal cord after he engaged Michael Taiwo in a fight over a woman. The incident happened at about 7.40 p.m. recently at Omisesan junction, Alagbado area of Lagos State, western Nigeria, where the two men reside. The 28-year-old Taiwo reportedly lifted Amoo up and hit him on the ground where stones were and he broke one of his legs and spinal cord. He cannot walk again as doctors certified him unfit after the fight. He is now confined to a bed in an undisclosed hospital in Lagos. P.M.NEWS learnt that Amoo and Taiwo had a disagreement over a woman which resulted in both of them fighting in public. Following the development, the police arrested Taiwo for allegedly inflicting grievous injury on Amoo. He was charged to Ojokoro Magistrates’ court where he pleaded not guilty and was granted bail by the presiding Magistrate, Mrs T. Akanni. However, he was remanded in prison custody pending when he will perfect his bail conditions. Taiwo, who was full of regrets, said he wants to settle the matter out of court and make peace with Amoo and his family. The matter was adjourned till 9 March 2015. http://www.pmnewsnigeria.com/2015/02/25/man-breaks-spinal-cord-fighting-over-a-woman/ |
