Kelechi was arrested on Sunday after he broke into another neighbour’s flat to steal in the Ejigbo area. He was said to have confessed to police that he broke into Peter Ibeh’s house at Afolabi Obe Street.
Unfortunately for him, while carrying out the act, a trap was set for him and he was locked from outside and eventually caught in the act.
In his confession, Ikechi said he resorted to stealing from his neighbours after he lost his factory job. He said he chose Sundays to steal because it was convenient and that his neighbours spend much time at their various church services.
On his part, the complainant, Peter Ibeh, said his house was burgled every Sunday when he and members of his family are in church. He said this caused serious rift within the family members and he decided to find the root cause.
Ibeh said on the day Ikechi was caught, he hid one of his aides inside their flat and went to church with other members of the family.
He said it paid off when Ikechi broke in and his aide locked him from outside and raised the alarm which attracted other neigbours and he was promptly arrested and handed over to Police at Ejigbo.
After investigation, the jobless Ikechi was charged before Isolo Magistrates’ court for burglary.
He pleaded not guilty to the charge and the court granted him bail in the sum of N100,000. But he has been remanded in prison custody pending when he will fulfill his bail condition.
According to PM News, his trial will commence on December 1, 2014.
