Immediately after the presiding judge, Justice Okon Okon pronounced the death sentence, the condemned criminals rained abuses on him and threatened to kill the Akwa Ibom state government prosecution team.
The condemned criminals went haywire, destroying the window of the court-room, causing pandemonium in the area while litigants as well as lawyers were seen scampering for safety.
It took the intervention of a detachment of soldiers and policemen to save the situation, taking them into a waiting prison van.
