The death sentence handed a mother of one, Maryam Sanda, convicted for murdering her husband, Bilyaminu Bello, a cousin of former Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Haliru Bello, has been upheld by the Court of Appeal in Abuja.
A three-man panel of the court, in a judgment on Friday afternoon, dismissed Sanda’s appeal for lacking in merit. Presiding Judge, Justice Steven Adah, in his two-hour Judgement, held that the court is duty-bound to do justice according to law and not sentiments. The judge held that the law does not leave room for irregularities, adding that parties must conduct criminal trials according to the law.
