Ebrima Nian was 65 years old. He has spent most of his life in Sweden. He returned to the Gambia in 2003 and later married Tabara Samba. Mr. Nian is survived by four children, three daughters and one son. The deceased’s sister, Mam Sosseh Conteh, indicated that on Tuesday 6th March 2007, at around 1.30 am, his brother came to their home and told them that his wife, Tabara poured hot oil on him. She said the family rushed him to Lamtoro clinic and upon their arrival, they were told by staff at the clinic that they would not attend to him because it is a criminal case. Mam Sosseh added that the wife Tabara told them that she did not pour hot oil on her husband. She said Tabara told them that her husband came home with charred body. Mam said that the late Ebrima Nian was rushed to RVTH around 5am and was admitted there, but during his admission at the RVTH, they didn’t see any improvement on him, noting that the injuries were serious, and he finally succumbed to death on Friday. Mam Sosseh further stated that the doctors had told them that if the health condition of Nian did not improve, they would make recommendations for him to be taken abroad for treatment.

She added that they, (Family members of Mr. Nian), are not aware of Mr. Nian’s intention to marry another wife as alleged. Mam Sosseh further said that Ebrima was a diabetes and asthmatic patient.

| As a western woman I REALLY cannot get my haed around polygamy (and yes I've already heard many of the arguments in favour). However, this man didn't deserve to die. May his soul rest in eternal peace. |

ALLEGED HUSBAND MURDERER TO BE MENTALLY EXAMINED
By Fabakary B. Ceesay
Modou Lamin Drammeh, the counsel for Tabara Samba, who is facing a charge of murder, has made an application before the Kanifing Magistrate Court for the accused to be taken for a psychiatric examination. Mr. Drammeh made this application, on Wednesday 2 May. before Magistrate Pa Harry Jammeh.
Mr. Drammeh said that the accused had suffered from shock in the past and that may have led her to be mentally sick. Magistrate Jammeh upheld the application and ordered the accused to be brought back to court on 7 May 2007. Prior to the defence’s application, the prosecution had called four witnesses to testify. PW 4, Ousman Jarjue, who is said to be a neighbour of the deceased (Ebrima Nyan) told the court that on the 7 March, at around 2:15am, he heard the deceased shouting. He said he rushed to find out what was going on. He said he saw the deceased rushing to the bath room and that he (Jarjue) called him (Nyan) and asked him why he was shouting. Jarjue indicated that the deceased told him that they poured hot water on him. Jarjue said that he advised the victim to go to the hospital but that the accused person (Tabara) told him that it was not a problem, and that may be the victim was dreaming. He said that he could not get inside to help the victim.
PW5-Lamin Conteh said that in the month of March at around 2:00am, he heard a knock on his door and that he opened. He said he found the deceased standing by the door. Mr. Conteh said that the accused (Tabara) told him that the deceased was accusing her of pouring hot water on him. He added that he heard the deceased telling his mother that the accused poured hot water on him while he was sleeping. He said that the deceased demanded the keys to the house from the accused and that she threw the keys on the ground. He testified that the accused picked up the keys herself and said that she wanted to take her dress from the house. Conteh asserted that while they board a car to go to the hospital, the accused left for home. He noted that upon their return to the house, they found out that the accused has already wiped out some stains and left some unwiped. He added that she also overturned the bed mattress (sponge) and that when they lifted it, it was stained with oil.
PW6-Jikiba Sanneh a police detective attached to the Serious Crime Unit at Banjul, said he was responsible for taking photographs. He said that he took five (5) pictures of the deceased at the mortuary in Banjul. At this juncture, the photos were shown to the accused person and she started shedding tears. The photos were tendered as exhibits. PW7 first class 1855 Modou Lamin Jabang, said that he was assigned to interview the victim on his hospital bed at the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the RVTH. Mr. Jabang told the court that the deceased told him that on the 7 March while he and the accused were watching TV, he requested for them to go to bed, but that the accused said she was watching TV. He said the deceased told him that he left the accused watching TV while he went to bed. Jabang indicated that the deceased told him that while he was in bed, he saw the accused coming in and out of the room, watching him. Jabang said that he was told by the deceased that the accused came with some liquid but that he (deceased) thought that it was hot water. Jabang said that the deceased told him that he went into the shower to change his clothes and later went to Lamtoro Clinic.
Mrs. Tabara Samba is standing trial for allegedly pouring hot oil on her husband, which led to his untimely death. She pleaded not guilty to the charges.
