The Bauchi State Controller of Prisons, Suleiman T. Suleiman, has lamented that five persons who have been convicted to be stoned to death and 10 others whose legs and hands are to be amputated are languishing in prison.
He said six other inmates have also been condemned to death; five on life sentence and 188 are on long term sentence from two years and above.He said: “The condemned convicts we have are mostly coming from Sharia courts; this and other related cases like amputation of hand or leg victims have been in jail for over 10 years without knowing their fate. Their hands or legs are not cut off yet, they don’t know their fate. There are those who are supposed to be stoned to death, so I am worried.
“They’re the only category of people that cannot be taken to court because they have already been convicted, but there’s no execution.”
