“The accused assaulted the complainant by punching him following an accusation that he stole his shoes.
“The accused again attacked the complainant where he was seated with a broken bottle on the head, neck, shoulder and hands.”
The accused, however, pleaded not guilty, while the Magistrate, Mr A. A. Fashola, granted him a bail of N50,000 with one surety in like sum.
The offences contravened Section 173 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2015 (Revised). The section prescribes three years imprisonment for offenders.
Fashola adjourned the case until March 21.
