TREASON TRIAL DEFERRED DUE TO UNAVAILABILITY OF RECORDS By Bubacarr K. Sowe
The treason trial involving Tamsir Jassey, Alieu Jobe, Omar Keita and Hon. Demba Dem was on Wednesday adjourned by the High Court till the 1st Of November. The Presiding Judge, Justice Avril Anin-Yaboah said the records of the proceedings are not available to the defence counsels and so deferred the trial.
However, in a previous hearing, one of the defence counsels objected to the continuation of the trial on grounds that the testimony of the first Prosecution witness, Capt. Seckan was not available to them. It could be recall that two of the defence counsels, Lamin S. Camara and Lamin Jobarteh withdrew from the case when it was being presided over by Justice Agim. The duo have announced re-representation for their clients.
The quartets are standing trial for their alleged involvement in the March 21st abortive Coup d’etat.
