Captain John Conteh, a fugitive wanted for his involvement in the failed November 26th coup attempt, was shot dead by police on Wednesday after attempting to escape custody.
Sierraloaded learnt that Conteh was apprehended at his mother’s residence in Mayenkineh, Calaba Town, on Wednesday morning.
Authorities reported that Conteh was being transported to the Jui Detention Center when he attempted to overpower an officer.
According to police statements, Conteh’s handcuffs were loosened due to the need to cross a river during transport. He allegedly struck an officer, jumped from the vehicle, and fled on foot. Police pursued and opened fire, fatally wounding Conteh. He was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital.
Conteh’s mother was also arrested on charges of harboring a fugitive.
Hmmmm
Time Will tell
This regime is just too Bloody as simple as that.
May His soul rest in Peace. Senseless officers that do not know how to use a Gun. Why not aimed at the lower Extremities rather than a Fatal shot.
Majority of our this country’s officers are no good force to reckon with. They’re deadly, Unsafe and Unfit for this Nation’s Security.
Oh salone wuna fix the country and stop all the this wickedness
He’s not better than all the officers brutally killed and the state of emergency the country went through all because of them. As a result, he honestly deserves his punishment.
Salone man dae kill e brother every day
e sorry
My people the Almighty Allah can judge our evil deeds mr Conteh Rest In Perfect Peace
Mr contehs mother is not wrong for harbouring her son because, your son is always your son.you can never send your son to rebel the government, so let her go in peace she is innocent.
What do you want me to say? Dis e fool me mot
They are lucky the death penalty has been expunged from our constitution.
Kudos to the gallant police officer that took him down .
We changed our government by election not the by the barrel of the gun
Captain Conteh should have resigned from the military as,his allegiance was to the APC not Sierra Leone.
Governor Clarkson’s prayers for Sierra Leone will expose them all .

Maada Bio had planned all these killings before now. The plan was to eliminate those that have been killed and those that are currently on court. Only the fools cannot perceive sequences of these actions
May his soul rest in hell, God bless our securities. We need more of them to die so will live in peace in this country
Indeed, all those celebrating these criminals shall surely best the brunt of their actions, the blood of innocent spilled like chickens will live forever and torment will be the portions of those conspiring against the people of Sierra Leone!
Well done our brave official
These fugitive need to rest in hell
God knows the best

This is not done as a country, every day killing killing killing, now look how people are suffering from hunger and hardship ness. But what goes around comes around. May God almighty Allah continue to bless us and sierra Leone as well.
Maada Bio was there when he was arrested?? Why are you Sierra leoneans not truthful to yourselves???
