Kemo Saho Sentenced Again

Tuesday, September 22, 2009

An assault case involving one Kemo Saho of Farato Village has at last come to an end.

Kemo Saho had been standing trial at a magistrate court in Brikama since 2006 for allegedly assaulting one Samba Bah, a one time Imam in Farato, causing him grievous bodily harm by wounding him with an object, a charge he denied.

In trying to prove their case, the prosecution had called four witnesses, all of whom testified against Mr. Saho.

Kemo Saho, who had just completed serving a two-year jail term for an identical felony on the same Samba Bah, was last Wednesday sentenced to one year in prison without an option of a fine by Magistrate Kayode.

According to the particulars of offence, Kemo Saho on 24th July 2006, unlawfully and wilfully assaulted Samba Bah, causing him grievous bodily harm.
