He said the five students were with the intent to kill one Yekeen Basiru before they allegedly stabbed him on his back and left hand with an axe.
Akintunde told the court that the five pupils and others now at large on November 23, 2020, around 1pm at Ifeoluwa Grammar School, Osogbo with the intent to kill, stabbed one Yekeen Basiru on his back and left hand with an axe.
He alleged that they engaged in an unlawful society known as Eiye Confraternity Society, damaged the building of Ifeoluwa Grammar School and windscreen of Mercedez Benz ML320 with registration number AP 665 SGB property of Ajibade Kehinde.
He added that the offences committed are contrary to Section 320, 516, 64 and 451 of the Criminal Code Cap 34. Vol II Laws of Osun State 2002.

In his ruling, Magistrate A. A. Adeyeba granted the accused bail with a sum of N1m and two sureties each.
