A Police Constable in Freetown, Sierra Leone’s capital, 18471 Alusine Kamara who is attached to the Ross Road Police Station in Freetown, has been arrested and is in custody at the Waterloo Police Station for escorting Kush dealers, according to a Police source.
“Police Constable 1847 Alusine Kamara of Ross Road Police Station, Freetown is in custody at the Waterloo Police Station for escorting Kush dealers,” our police source confirms.
Kush is a substance confirmed to be a harmful and illegal drug used mostly by young people.
A large quantity of drugs suspected to be Kush about the said arrest is in the custody of the Waterloo Police Division as exhibits, our source said.
Our source is not officially obliged to speak on behalf of the Sierra Leone Police Force and will remain anonymous for his/her safety. The Sierra Leone media department is not immediately available for comment.
But the National Debate has confirmed the story with multiple sources within the police force who also confirmed the allegations to be under investigation at the Waterloo Police Division.
But what’s still not clear is the place and time of the alleged incident. In recent years, the members of the security forces especially the Sierra Leone Police force have come into the limelight for aiding and abetting drug dealers either escorting them passed through checkpoints or indirectly taking part in the process. In most cases, the police are alleged to engage in the act on commission bases.
