The legal dispute over the estate property of the late Abi Bockarie Bangura continued on Thursday at Magistrate Court No. 8, presided over by Magistrate Brima Samura.
The case involves Abu Zubairu Bangura and twelve respondents, including Brima Wilson.
During the proceedings, Brima Wilson resumed his testimony, presenting a document he claimed to be an original rent receipt.
Wilson said the document was meant to show that the apartment belongs to Joseph Wilson, not Abubakarr Bangura, the applicant, rather than to prove ownership.
The prosecution objected, arguing that the receipt was inadmissible since Wilson was neither the named recipient nor listed on the document.
Wilson testified that the apartment owner had given him the receipt in 2025 after he made a rent payment. Despite the objection, the court allowed the document as evidence, marking it as Exhibit Y1-2.
In cross-examination, Wilson acknowledged knowing Abu Zubairu Bangura as his cousin but clarified he was not a biological member of the Wilson family.
Abi Bockarie Bangura passed away intestate (without a will), and the estate was granted to Abu Zubairu Bangura on December 22, 2023.
The twelve respondents include Brima Wilson, Mohamed Kamara, Aminata Kamara, Mummy Conteh, Mummy Kargbo, Alhassan Koroma, Alie Kamara, Daddy Brima Limba, Madam Nennch, Mr Daddy, Marie Kargbo, and Fatmata Kamara.
The case has been adjourned to October 14, 2025, for further hearings and additional witness testimony. The legal dispute remains ongoing as the court continues to evaluate the claims and evidence presented.
