Earlier, the prosecutor, Cpl Hemen Donald, had told the court that a report was lodged at the `A’ Division Police Station on the matter.
He said the report was lodged by Ms Ikung Glory of Calvary Road, Mararaba Division Police Station on June 3.
Donald said the complainant had gone to bank to withdraw N8,000 from an ATM, only to be robbed on her way back home.
“The accused persons had stopped the complainant on the way and introduced themselves as pastors.
“The accused persons allegedly hypnotised her into parting with the N80,00, a Tecno cell phone and an ATM card,’’ he told the court.
Donald said after the accused collected the money, cell phone and ATM card from the complainant, they ran way.
The prosecutor said the offence contravened the provisions of sections 97 and 292 of the Penal Code.
If convicted, the accused are liable to a prison term of about five years or with an option of fine. (NAN)
