This is Jotra.

Utra is a bloody thief at night and an
0:05
active is during the day. You might be
0:08
sleeping in your room. UTRA will sneak
0:10
in, steal your property, leave without
0:13
you noticing. The only time you notice
0:14
that something has is missing is when
0:17
you wake up in the morning, then you
0:18
start looking for that and you can't
0:20
find it anymore. Nobody knows that otra
0:23
who is an activist during the day is
0:25
also the bloody thief that comes to
0:28
steal people's properties at night.
0:31
This has become a very a very big
0:33
problem in the community to the extent
0:35
that they went to the community chief
0:37
and they reported this matter to him
0:39
making him to understand that a lot of
0:41
things are happening in the community at
0:43
night and steps has to be taken in order
0:46
for this thing to be called.
0:48
But the chief acted as if he's okay, I
0:52
will look into it. That was what he told
0:54
them. Everybody deserted. And then that
0:57
same night, the chief
1:01
also experienced his own robbery. The
1:05
same thief
1:08
came to his house and stole his
1:09
property. It was in the morning that the
1:12
chief started shouting that someone has
1:13
come to his place to steal and steal his
1:16
property. So what he did was to call for
1:19
a meeting. The elders of the community
1:22
gathered and they started looking for a
1:24
solution to this problem. Ana also who
1:26
is an activist is also part of these uh
1:29
elders that were
1:32
summoned by the chief. So raised a
1:35
suggestion. He said that this thing have
1:37
happened for for a long period of time.
1:39
to let them consider inviting or create
1:43
a vigilante group that will have the
1:46
responsibility of looking after the
1:48
community during the night.
1:51
Then everybody concurred and they now
1:56
started sourcing from their young men
1:58
those who volunteered to work as the
2:00
vigilante group. They all came and they
2:03
settled on the amount that they'll be
2:04
paying them every month as their salary.
2:07
Now as this group were formed
2:11
barely two days of their formation
2:14
criminality heightened ot
2:17
doubled his level of stealing.
2:20
If he comes to your house and steal a a
2:22
thing before now that there is a
2:24
vigilante group he will come and steal
2:26
something that is more than three.
2:30
So it became so bad to the extent that
2:33
people couldn't have it anymore. They
2:35
decided to protest. They protested. They
2:38
went to the king's pal to the chief's
2:40
house and were shouting at the top of
2:43
their voice telling the chief that they
2:45
need to disband the vigilante group that
2:48
they don't understand if the vigilante
2:49
groups are the people that are stealing
2:52
their properties. Otra who is also the
2:54
leader of this protest was telling the
2:58
chief that he must disband the vigilante
3:00
groups. Now the chief was like you are
3:03
the same person that suggested we create
3:05
this vigilante group. He said yes that
3:07
is true but obviously the suggestion is
3:10
not working. Before this thief doesn't
3:13
steal much things but now that we have
3:16
vigilante groups it looks as if the
3:18
whole properties in our houses are now
3:20
the properties of this thief.
3:23
They will they have gone to different
3:25
part of the community to ransack homes.
3:28
They cannot find these properties. So
3:29
one is still asking where does keep all
3:32
these things that he steals. No one
3:35
knows that each night he goes out to
3:37
steal, he has already planned on how to
3:40
sell them off that same night.
3:44
So it happened that the chief now
3:47
concord to the comm community to the
3:49
community's will. He disbanded the
3:53
activities of the vigilante group. Now
3:59
has come back again to his normal way of
4:01
stealing.
4:03
He kept on stealing. He kept on stealing
4:07
until 2002.
4:10
It was his time to be caught.
4:14
There is this saying that that says
4:16
every day is for the thief. Just one day
4:19
for the owner of the house as everybody
4:21
has gone to bed to sleep just as it is
4:24
expected. Utra went for his normal
4:28
routine stealing routine. This time
4:31
around he's stuck naked naked from head
4:34
to toe so that none of his clothes will
4:38
not be a reason for why it caught or
4:41
something. So while he was going to
4:43
steal from a compound, there is this
4:45
5-year-old boy who loves to ease himself
4:49
outside at night. They have restroom in
4:52
their house, but he prefers to ease
4:53
himself outside the compound at night.
4:57
So while
4:59
was sneaking into the house, the young
5:01
boy who was outside already easing
5:05
himself saw a naked man entering their
5:09
house. As he was entering, the little
5:13
boy picked up an iron with a sharp top.
5:17
As in the tip of the iron was very
5:19
sharp. As Utra was about coming out from
5:21
the room, the little boy swinged it at
5:25
Otra
5:27
and
5:28
it scratched the stonework and he
5:30
shouted and dropped what he was carrying
5:33
and ran for his life. The little boy did
5:37
not notice his face, but at least he he
5:41
diluted the sound of his voice.
5:44
So the parents of the little boy came
5:46
out in in a in a hurry to find out what
5:49
is going on, who shouted and why was the
5:52
noise. They saw their child outside and
5:54
they asked him, "What are you doing
5:56
outside?" He said he came to ease
5:57
himself that someone came to steal that
5:58
thing and that is their property. They
6:00
his father looked at it and was like,
6:02
"Who is this? Did you see his face?" He
6:04
said, "No, he didn't see his face, but
6:05
he got him injured." He told them to
6:07
look at his blood. They traced the blood
6:10
to a particular place and they didn't
6:12
see the blood ended somewhere that
6:16
didn't lead them to any place. The next
6:18
morning while everybody was everybody
6:22
gathered and were talking about the
6:24
thief last night came and started
6:28
sympathizing with the family. I heard a
6:30
thief came to your house. While he was
6:32
saying that thing,
6:34
the little boy was recalling the voice
6:38
sounded familiar to the voice that he
6:40
heard overnight. He told his father that
6:42
that is the man that this is the man
6:45
that came to steal their property.
6:47
Father told him to stop making noise,
6:48
that this man is an activist. He's a
6:50
wellrespected man in the community. The
6:52
little boy insisted that this is the man
6:55
that came to steal our property.
6:57
He is the man. The little boy persisted.
6:59
The people were telling him to shut up
7:00
to stop insulting
7:02
that is a well respected man in the
7:04
community. The boy insisted that he is
7:06
the thief. Then all eyes were now on
7:11
the boy told them that if they think
7:13
he's telling lies he they should tell
7:15
him to raise his clothes that is the
7:17
place you got him injured. So was trying
7:20
to defend himself until the extent that
7:22
the community would have decided that he
7:24
must open his shed just to prove the
7:27
little boy wrong.
7:29
He tried to defend himself and someone
7:32
from nowhere pulled up his shed and
7:34
behold there was a mark
7:37
of the injury he got the night he went
7:39
to steal the property. The whole
7:42
community descended on him. They
7:44
descended on him and he had to confess
7:47
that he has been the thief as that has
7:50
been stealing the properties of the
7:52
community for the past few years.
7:57
They after beating him they handed him
7:59
over to the police and from the police
8:01
he went to court and he was jailed for
8:04
40 years until this very day John is
8:08
still in the prison. I hope this was
8:12
cool. I will see you in the next video.
