Magistrate Mbacke Defends Parents

Thursday, October 4, 2007

Senior magistrate Abdoulie Mbacke of Kanifing Magistrates’ Court has stressed that respect for parents is a strong Islamic and Christian value that must be entrenched at all cost.

He added that his court would employ all means possible to ensure that the fabric of our society is not eroded.

According to the learned magistrate, he would spare no efforts in protecting parents from the embarrassment of the unruly and untoward conducts of their children.

Magistrate Mbacke made these resolutions before sentencing one Momodou Gassama to serve four months in jail for threatening to kill his father.
