A lawyer has brought a businessman, Mohamed Amara, to court over the alleged misappropriation of two printers valued at ten thousand Leones.
The case is being heard by Magistrate Santigie Bangura at Pademba Road Court No. 2 in Freetown, where Amara faces charges of fraudulent conversion, in violation of Section 20(1)(iv)(a) of the Larceny Act of 1916.
Mohamed Amara is accused of misappropriating the two printers, which were entrusted to him by Emmanuel Teddy Koroma, ESQ, for the purpose of sale. According to the case details, Amara allegedly converted the printers for his personal use or benefit. The alleged offense occurred in July 2024 at #3 Macdonald Street in the Western area of Freetown.
During the proceedings, the charges were read and explained to the accused, but no plea was entered. The prosecution, led by Sergeant 3379 Theresa Ballay, requested a brief adjournment due to the unavailability of a key witness. Notably, Amara was not represented by legal counsel during this hearing.
Magistrate Bangura denied bail, citing the seriousness of the alleged offense, and ordered Amara to be remanded at the male correctional facility in Freetown. The case has been adjourned until April 3, 2025.
But why was him be remains in prison rather than giving him freedom why the investigators continue….hope justice will prevail despite whom is involved in the transaction with the business
