LAWYER CONFIRMS THAT TIWA SAVAGE HUSBAND TEE BILLZ, MIGHT BE JAILED
Teebillz was reported to have attempted committing suicide on Thursday, April 28, 2016, at the Ikoyi-Lekki bridge in Lagos.
According to TheNet.ng, under the laws of the country, anyone caught attempting suicide is liable to face a year in prison.
Section 327 of the Nigerian Criminal Code states that “Any person who
attempts to kill himself is guilty of a misdemeanour and liable to
imprisonment for 1 year”.
TheNet.ng, who noted through a lawyer explained that no one has been
convicted for attempted suicide. However, Teebillz might be on his way
to become the first.
TheNet.ng. further noted that “such cases are usually handled by medical
personnel who assess the mental state of the individual and try to
offer treatment for depression and other mental disorders.”
Teebillz was reported to be likely to get a pardon for his alleged use of cocaine.
“Most legal systems focus on possession or possession with the intention
to distribute. So it would be more defamatory than actionable for
someone to make such accusations in the media since he who alleges must
prove”.
