Ishmael Rappish Bah, the elder brother of Sierra Leone’s popular rapper Alhaji Amadu Bah, popularly known as Boss La, has accused Sierra Leone’s Judiciary of being made up of criminals.
Bah made this statement in a Facebook post after being recently released from prison, where he had spent 15 months at the Male Correctional Center.
He stated that the Sierra Leone Judiciary system is fake and rotten, alleging that the Judiciary operates under “calls from above.”
He also added that innocent people are being judged and sentenced by criminals in Sierra Leone.
“Shame on you, Magistrate Mark Ngegba, Court No. 1. Shame on you, Justice Fisher High Court, and the whole Judiciary who run under the code of CALLS FROM THE ABOVE. Only cowards act on commands to punish innocent citizens. This fake and rotten system won’t break people like us with a lion’s heart. At first, I thought criminals should face a judge for trial; it is the other way around. Innocent Sierra Leoneans are being judged and sentenced by criminals,” Bah lamented.
He continued that there is no power or person on earth that will scare him away from his family, adding that he will continue to fight for the freedom of his brother (Boss La), who was sentenced to 9 years imprisonment by Justice Adrain Fisher of Sierra Leone’s High Court. He accused Justice Fisher’s statement before his sentence as reckless.
“I am back to continue the freedom fight for LAJ. They might be able to put fear in other people to distance themselves from him, but they can’t do that with me. The most reckless statement I heard from Justice Fisher before sentencing me to 15 months is that he is sentencing me because I keep going to Benghazi to ask for my brother. He told the court that family members have no right to visit their families who are in police custody,” he said.
Bah also alleged that his whole family was targeted after they sentenced him and his brother, and their 70-year-old father was behind bars for 14 days because he did not distance himself from them.
May God see the entire family of you guys through and pray for a change of government. Join the line of the campaign team for A.P.C and try by all means to trash them out of power.
hard fact my brother these is a shame on them but we belief that justice must pravil for the king Boss LAJ their time will surely come to past
The judiciary system in this country is run by politicians not Judges or Barristers. I thought the judiciary in any country should be an independent body? Shame on Salone judiciary system.
Next time, tell your brother to behave himself. No country is a vacuum. Beating that poor station operative was wrong. Your family should apologise for that before accusing the judges.
It’s a bitter pills to swallow but La should blame himself not the judiciary.
Sometimes, the law you don’t see bites.
Whatever he gets is justifiable to deter others from committing the same act.
Now, rape is strictly punishable, you go and rape and then start blaming the police, judges and government.
Next time advise your brother to grow.
