A petty thief who has been terrorizing an area in the South-eastern part of Nigeria was 'baptized' with stinking waste in an experience he will not forget so soon.
The accused, Kelechi cooling off in the gutter
It was the end of the road for a known thief who has been terrorizing the residents Owerri with his infamous skills.
The young man identified as Kelechi was allegedly beaten to pulp after he was caught breaking into an electronics shop in Owerri, where he allegedly tried to steal some laptops. An alarm was raised after he was spotted inside the shop by some people around.
An angry mob immediately gathered, stripped him unclad, beat him mercilessly and made him endure a some painstaking fun session in a very dirty gutter.
He was later handed over to security operatives for prosecution.
