There was mild drama at the Ondo state High Court sitting in Akure as the second defendant in the case of two civil servants, Adéyemí Sarumi and Bosede Orisamehin who allegedly stole and sold the baby of a deranged woman collapsed. Mrs Bosede Orisamehin who lacked the strength to stand in the witness box because of her health was allowed to seat but collapsed during the trial. The situation spurred her counsel, Kayode Adéọlá to apply for an adjournment to allow his client attend to her health. OSRC’s Richard Ilesanmi reports that the prosecution witness called by the state testified before the court.
