The Police has arraigned a twenty-six-year-old commercial sex worker, Chetachi Nwokedi, before an Apapa Chief Magistrate’s Court, Lagos, for allegedly slashing a colleague’s left breast with a razor.
Nwokedi is standing trial on a one-count charge of assault before Chief Magistrate,Oluyemisi Adelaja.
Prosecutor, Corporal Joseph Ameh, alleged that Nwokedi on June twenty-five in Badiya used a blade to inflict deep cuts on the neck and left breast of Endurance Aghalokpe, resulting in bodily harm and subsequent admission in a hospital.
Nwokedi, however, pleaded not guilty to the charge.
Her Counsel, Nnadi Uche, pleaded with the court to grant her bail on liberal terms.
In her ruling, Adelaja granted the accused bail in the sum of one hundred thousand naira with two sureties in like sum.
She said the sureties must show evidence of gainful employment in reputable organisations.
Security Alert with Jide gathered that the complainant had accused Nwokedi of snatching her male customer, an allegation that infuriated the latter.
Nwokedi allegedly dashed to her room and brought out a razor blade with which she attacked Aghalokpe.
