Ex- Lieutenant M.A Bah Released
30-11-09
The authorities on Thursday evening released ex-Lieutenant Momodou Alieu Bah of the Gambia Armed Forces from the Maximum Security Wing at Mile Two Central Prison.
The ex-military officer was arrested and detained shortly after the coup plot masterminded by a former Chief of Defence Staff, Colonel Ndure Cham, was foiled by soldiers loyal to the regime, including the former Chief of Defence Staff, Major General Lang Tombong Tamba.
M.A Bah was later tried by a court martial at the Yundum Military Barracks and sentenced to twenty five years imprisonment.
A source in Lamin informed this paper that M.A Bah’s neighbours in the area received the news of his release with joy and appreciation.
His co-convicts, namely Captain Bunja Darboe, Captain Yaya Darboe, Lieutenant Pharing Sanyang, Captain Wassa Camara, Captain Adoukarim Jah, Captain Pierre Mendy, Private Alagie Nying, Lance Corporal Babou Janha and Corporal Samba Bah are still serving their sentences, at the time of going to press.
