As a result, he was arrested, remanded and later sentenced to 10 years in prison.
“He told me the money was his money not knowing it was his fathers. So we spent part of the money and kept the rest. When his father realised the money was gone, he got the clue fled.
They came looking for him at my house and found the bag instead. So I became the culprit and was arrested,” he narrated.
