The Lawyers’ Society has welcomed the release on bail of Lansana Dumbuya Esq., describing the development as a positive step toward upholding due process and the rule of law.
In a public statement shared on its official X (formerly Twitter) page, the Society confirmed that its President held what it termed a “fruitful engagement” with the Office of the Attorney General regarding the issue of bail. According to the statement, assurances were given of a commitment to fair justice and adherence to due process in the handling of the matter.
The Society further disclosed that its Secretary, Public Relations Officer (PRO), and Treasurer have been closely monitoring the case. It added that they will continue to follow proceedings as part of their broader mandate to defend human rights and support members of the legal profession.
Lansana Dumbuya, a senior legal practitioner, had been in custody prior to the granting of bail. While the Society did not elaborate on the specific charges or circumstances surrounding the case, its statement emphasized solidarity with what it described as a “distinguished senior colleague.”
The development has drawn attention within legal and civic circles, particularly regarding the principles of bail, fair trial, and judicial independence.
Observers note that engagements between professional legal bodies and state institutions are part of ongoing efforts to promote transparency and confidence in the justice system.
As the matter proceeds, stakeholders are expected to continue monitoring developments to ensure that legal standards and constitutional safeguards are maintained.
