COURT TO DELIVER JUDGMENT ON LAI CONTEH’S CASE
By Bubacarr K. Sowe
Judgment is set for the 17th of January in the appeal case filed by the state against Abdoulie Conteh, who was removed from his position as Mayor of the Kanifing Municipal Council (KMC).
A written argument was filed by the appellant (the state) at the court of Appeal and the respondent filed its response. The appellant was given seven days to reply to the respondent’s brief, but he failed to do so.
The state counsel, Emmanuel Fagbenle applied for an extension of time, but the respondent’s counsel, Antouman Gaye, objected to the application.
The court ruled that the rejoinder be allowed, taking into account Section 85 of the constitution which Fagbenle cited.
Mr. Gaye also applied for their brief to be adopted and the court did so. This appeal against Lai Conteh arose after he was acquitted by the High Court.
