The police has arraigned a woman, Esther Koko Umoh at the Magistrate Court 1, Zone 6, Abuja for assaulting a lady. The accused, Esther was said to have subjected a Spa Attendant to aggravated brutality and has been charged with assault offences following her arrest and interrogation by the police in Abuja.

The arrest came after police received information relating to an alleged assault by the woman against a young lady who worked as a Spa Attendant at Wuye District, Abuja over an argument of One Thousand Naira (N1000).

Investigations by Neighborhood Watch revealed that Koko Umo became a nuisance to her neighborhood, abusing and harassing people at will. This eventually escalated to her assaulting a spa attendant over an argument of One Thousand Naira (1000 naira). CCTV footage at the Spa captured her shouting, molesting and attacking attendants recklessly.

Esther was subsequently arrested as the victim had accused her of causing her severe bodily injuries including her ears. Her case was reported to the police station where she showed no remorse but rather harassed men and officers of the police. Efforts at getting a peaceful resolution and treatment for the victim who developed ENT challenges with acute pores on ears failed. She was eventually Charged to Court for assault.

The prosecutor alleged that it took the intervention of people around to rescue the Spa Attendant. He told the court that in the process, Esther was arrested.

The Presiding Magistrate at Magistrate Court 1, Wuse Zone 6 having heard from both parties on interrogation gave her a fine of One Million Naira (N1,000,000.00) or be remanded.

The prosecutor said the offences contravened sections 79, 246 and 397 of the Penal Code.
