Creative Criminal Defense Update

A “puzzling” criminal case is reported from Nigeria:

The elder brother of the victim who is now in police custody was said to have told the police that he had gone to his mother’s cassava farm and saw about 15 goats which ran out of the farm on sighting him.


According to him, a recalcitrant one had refused to move out of the farm.

It was gathered that at this point, he picked up an axe and used it on the goat, and to his greatest surprise, the goat that was injured turned to a human being (his younger brother) and died.


He also revealed that on sighting the transformation of the goat to his own brother, he took to flight and went into hiding from where the Police came to pick him on the receipt of the information.
