The case involving Kawsu Ceesay, the former Chief Electoral Officer of IEC, was adjourned to the 17th March 2008, for judgement by magistrate Sainabou Wadda-Ceesay of the Kanifing Magistrate’s Court.
 
Prior to the adjournment, state counsel Umar and the defence counsel, lawyer Batchilly, adopted their written addresses.

Kawsu Ceesay was earlier arraigned before magistrate Secka of the Kanifing Magistrate’s Court and charged with forging the signature of the former Chairman of IEC, an allegation he totally denied.

Magistrate Wadda-Ceesay took over the case after magistrate Secka had left to further his education. She is expected to go through the pieces of evidence before her to come up with a verdict on 17th March, 2008.
