While delivering his judgement, presiding judge, Justice Adebola Ojo, found Adedeji guilty of doctoring the hotel receipt issued to the deceased, fabricating another and concealing of evidence charged against her.

Justice Ojo said the two years should start counting from the first day she was detained since the commencement of the matter.
