Sierra Leone Police in Kamakwie have arrested a teenager identified as Alie Fofana, who is allegedly connected to a series of motorbike thefts across the region.
The suspect was apprehended in Laminaya, a village in Loko Chiefdom, after an extended investigation led by Criminal Investigation Department (CID) officers from the Kamakwie Police Division.
According to police reports, Fofana hails from a town located along the Kabala Makeni highway and is believed to be part of a network involved in hijacking and stealing motorbikes, particularly from parks, stores, and other public or commercial areas.
Authorities revealed that Fofana was traced over a period of time and finally captured after being linked to a recent incident involving a stolen motorbike. The said motorbike reportedly belonged to a friend of a businessman who had been the victim of a midnight robbery in Kamakwie several months ago. That robbery allegedly involved the theft of a significant amount of money.
During police interrogation, Fofana’s name surfaced in connection with the stolen motorbike, which had reportedly been recovered from another individual. He is currently assisting police with further investigations.
The Kamakwie Police Division has stated that updates regarding the outcome of the investigation will be made available to the public in due course.
At this stage, no formal charges have been announced, and investigations are ongoing.
