Ekiti State Police Command has arraigned a 46-year-old man, Ilori Israel, before the Chief Magistrate Court in Ado-Ekiti over his alleged involvement in an attack that disrupted a Sunday church service.

According to the prosecutor, Inspector Akinwale Oriyomi, the incident occurred on June 20 around 10:30 a.m. in the Balota area of Ado-Ekiti. He told the court that the defendant, along with three others currently at large, allegedly conspired to assault an 18-year-old, Adunshe Oluwasoji.

Inspector Oriyomi further stated that the accused persons invaded a church during worship and disrupted the service by attacking members of the congregation using a large stone.

The prosecution maintained that the alleged actions contravened Sections 421 and 140 of the Criminal Law of Ekiti State, 2021, and are punishable under the same.

Counsel to the defendant, Barrister Ayorinde Busuyi, appealed to the court for bail on behalf of his client.

Presiding Chief Magistrate, Abayomi Adeosun, granted bail to the defendant in the sum of N100,000 with one surety in the same amount.

The case was adjourned to August 11 for further hearing.
