Two brothers, Innocent and Humphrey Pitman, beat up their father who cautioned them regarding disturbing the neighbourhood.

Innocent Pitman, 27, in conjunction with his brother Humphrey, are facing a two-count of joint act and assault for allegedly beating up their father who was tied up like a goat.

The victim, Isaac Pitman, reported the pair who were arraigned on Wednesday, January 3, 2018, at the Jikwoyi Police Station on December 24.

This is according to Prosecutor Mahmud Ismail ’la who explained that the duo assaulted their father because he corrected them about their behaviour.

“The two sons of the complainant tied him and beat him so much that he was pleading with them not to harm him.

“They beat him up because he warned them to stop disturbing the peace of neighbourhood with their criminal acts and thereafter, the second son ran away,” said the prosecutor.

According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the court's judge, Mr Aliyu Kagarko, granted Innocent bail in the sum of N100,000.

He adjourned for a hearing expected to hold on January 29, 2018.
