Ahmed Abdullahi was on Monday sentenced to death by hanging by Justice Suleiman Kawu of Ilorin High Court for the murder of 9 year-old Hamidu Sanda.
The court convicted Abdullahi of the offense of beheading Hamidu Sanda in a bush at Amberi Village, Iso Wara, near Ajase-Po in Irepodun Local Government Area of Kwara State on 1st April 2009.
The convict was also sentenced to five years imprisonment for being in possession of a fresh human head.
Justice Kawu also sentenced Abdullahi's accomplices, Waheed Sanni and Saka Adisa to five years imprisonment each for unlawfully receiving a fresh human head.
Justice Kawu found Sanni and Adisa guilty of conspiracy to be in possession of the fresh human head of the late Hamidu Sanda for ritual purpose.
He therefore sentenced each of them to an additional five years imprisonment for criminal conspiracy.
