28 years old Mohamed Mansaray, a driver and 37 years old Alpha Bedor Bangura, a manual labourer, have been committed to High Court after they made another Court appearance before Magistrate Sahr Kekura at the Pademba Road Court No.1 in Freetown.
They face a charge of Larceny under section 26(I) of the Larceny Act 1916.
Mansaray and Bangura on Saturday 10th August, 2024, at No.11 Johnson Lane, Aberdeen, Freetown, allegedly conspired together with other persons unknown and stole two thousand six hundred leones (Le 2,600), eighteen (18) packets of human hair, thirty two (32) bottles of assorted body spray, one silver memory stick, twenty nine (29) assorted cosmetics, one packet comb, pedicure salt, one blue cup hairy spray, and other items valued at 13,060,00, property of Kadijatu Kanu.
When the charges were read and explained to the accused on their first appearance, no plea taken.
The prosecutor, Inspector Kadie M. Taylor led four witnesses including the factual witness that narrated ordeals and the file was withdrawn for judgment.
Delivering his judgment, Magistrate Kekura said the prosecution adduced sufficient evidence to warrant a committal of the matter to the High Court.
However, bail continues for both accused with two sureties who must be gainfully employed with valid ID cards and resident within the jurisdiction, bail to be approved by the Deputy Assistant Registrar. Inspector M.K Taylor prosecuted the matter.
