Police prosecutor Joseph Ajebe said the accused committed the offence at his residence on January 9 at No. 33, Segun Aregbesola Street, New Oko-Oba, Lagos.
Officer Ajebe alleged that the accused beat the complainant, Amadi Longinus, to a pulp and cut off his left ear with his teeth.
“The complainant said that Justice had threatened to deal with him on several occasions. “Justice falsely accused the complainant of spying on him by flashing a torchlight to see his nakedness while he was bathing. “This led to a misunderstanding and a fight ensued between them and in the process, the accused beat Longinus to a pulp and bit off the left ear.”
The offences contravened Sections 166 (d), 170 and 244 (a) of the Criminal Laws of Lagos.
The magistrate adjourned the case to March 6 for trial.
