Nollywood Director Sentenced To 10 Strokesof Cane And 15years In Jail by zizman: 2:43pm On Jul 19, 2013 |
A Nollywood Director in Malaysia, Ifeanyi Johnpaul Aguonu was sentenced to 10 strokes of cane and 15 years in jail for drug possession. A Nigerian movie director was on Thursday given 15-years jail term after Malaysia authorities arrested him with 2.4kg of methamphetamines in his possession. Ifeanyi Johnpaul Aguonu,38,was also slapped with 10 strokes of the cane for the offence of bringing the drugs into the country in March 2011. High court Justice Abdul Alim Abdullah expressed concern that many Nigerians had entered Malaysia with drugs without fear of the law. "Our Country has a strict rule when it comes to drugs,that the law provides a death penalty for drug trafficking.If you are convicted with a capital offence here,you could have been hung from the neck until you die,"the judge said before sentencing Aguonu. "But you've been saved from the gallows because your counsel sent a representation and the Attorney-General Chambers agreed to give you an alternate charge,"he said |
