Nigerian Man Named Samuel Okeke And His Wife Sentenced To 25Years in Prison For Smuggling Drugs to Cambodia

Man-Samuel-Okeke

Cambodian Court Sentences Nigerian Man Samuel Okeke & His Wife To 25 Years In Jail For Smuggling Heroin. ANigerian man and his Vietnamese wife were sentenced to 25 years in prison on Thursday after being found guilty at the Phnom Penh Municipal Court of smuggling 1.5 kg of heroin from Cambodia to Australia in 2014.
Samuel Amechi Okeke, 34, and his wife Ho Thi Nhu Thuy, 26, were arrested in July 2014 after customs officials in Australia intercepted 10 backpacks lined with heroin that they had mailed from the Dangkao district post office in May that year, according to police. They were subsequently charged with drug trafficking.

On trial last month, Ms. Thuy admitted to mailing the backpacks but said she did so at the request of a friend and was unaware they contained heroin. Mr. Okeke said he knew nothing about the drugs.
On Thursday, the court ruled that he did.
“The court decides to sentence, firstly, Samuel Amechi Okeke, 34, Nigerian, to 25 years in prison and fine him 50 million riel [about $12,500],” Presiding Judge Than Leng announced in the courtroom, going on to read out an identical sentence for Ms. Thuy.

While being escorted from the courtroom, Mr. Okeke expressed disappointment about the ruling. “How can I accept?” he said.
Hun Rithy, a deputy bureau chief at the Interior Ministry’s internal security department who led the initial investigation into the case, said he was satisfied with the verdict.
“It is appropriate because they are husband and wife, and they colluded,” he said.
Mr. Okeke, who has been in provisional detention at Phnom Penh’s maximum-security Prey Sar prison since his arrest in 2014, is also facing trafficking charges over 13 kg of methamphetamine seized from a Cambodian man in Phnom Penh late last month—the biggest drug seizure of the year.
According to military police, the drugs were part of a distribution ring being operated by Mr. Okeke with four other inmates. All six suspects in the case were charged with trafficking on March 4.

    Igbo kwenu! family in prison. up biafraud

  33. Here you go again! It keeps coming. When will this end? Will it ever have an end ? Get rich at all cost.

  34. For you drug – pushers, the era of successful haul is over. With recent developments, even drugs in your bone marrow can be easily detected. Therefore, pushing drugs is no longer lucrative. In some countries like Iraq, Iran, Saudi Arabia, it is death by hanging. This guy is lucky it is Cambodia, that’s why he will live to see tomorrow.

  35. Partners in crime

  36. @UchenduUche, I believe Allison Madueke, Alex Badeh, Godswill Akpabio, Orosanye, Ilerikha, James Ibori and so on are from Igbo side and the atrocity they caused with their loots is still fresh in our minds. The painful aspect of this post is that when Igbo men did well they claim Biafran but when they found themselves in shameful acts they claim Nigeria. Camelion people.

  37. Hahahaha Yoruba boys do drugs more than any tribe in Nigeria…another thing is to born children in abroad is no easy for them…Nigeria look like Suadi Arabia children full everywhere at orphanage nobody want to take them…they don’t look like mix-children at all…they just look like Sudanese hahahahahaha honestly.

  38. Jabar when people are talking about corruption can you plz hide your face in shame..
    Evil Hausa elders create boko haram to kill their own people, share arms deals money just to make money…oh God, the blood of the innocent must fight back.
