Dudu Kassa Jaata And Co. Trial Deferred Indefinitely
By Modou Jonga
Magistrate Agub Johnny Njie of the Brikama Magistrate Court has ruled that he will adjourn the assault trial involving Mr. Dudu Kassa Jaata and Natioma Conteh indefinitely.
The decision to adjourn the case indefinitely came in the wake of the snail pace with which the case is progressing.
The accused persons were dragged to court by the state for allegedly and jointly assaulting one Hawa Jatta, on 13 May, 2006 at Pirang, shortly after the May 15, 2006 Kombo East By-Election. The accused persons have pleaded not guilty. Their alleged act is said to have cause actual bodily harm to the said complainant. The case has, over the period, been presided over by three magistrates and that no prosecution witness has ever testified in the case.
