Housekeeper ‘steals’ employer’s N3m jewellery for boyfriend

A 20-year-old housekeeper, Elizabeth Igwe, was yesterday arraigned before a Tinubu Magistrates’ Court in Lagos for allegedly stealing her employer’s jewellery worth N3 million.

The court granted her N500, 000 bail with two sureties in the like sum.

The prosecution said the accused unlawfully entered her employer’s room to steal the jewellery.

Police Inspector Francisca Okere told the court that the accused committed the offence on December 17 on Kazeem Street, Chevy View Estate in Lekki, Lagos.

“Igwe packed all the jewellery and gave them to her boyfriend at Alpha Beach. Before she was apprehended, the accused had planned to leave for her village for Christmas and had no plans of coming back to work for her boss,” he said.

The offence contravened Sections 285 (7), 306 and 509 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.

Igwe pleaded not guilty.
