Alhaji Koroma, a member of the Republic of Sierra Leone Armed Forces (RSLAF) who was arrested in connection with the November 26th failed attempted coup in Sierra Leone has pleaded guilty to the charges levied against him.

Koroma is among twenty-seven serving military officers personnel facing a Court Martial presided over by Senior Magistrate Marke Ngegba and a panel of seven others in Freetown.

The court martial proceedings resumed today, revealing a staggering 88 charges levied against the accused individuals, exposing their purported roles in the failed coup.

The charges encompass a spectrum of offenses designed to destabilize the state, including mutiny, failure to suppress mutiny, aiding the enemy, communicating with the enemy, stealing of public or service property, fraudulent misapplication of public or service property, and the gravest charge of murder – potentially linked to casualties arising from the unsuccessful uprising.

After the charges were read to the accused persons, the first accused Alhaji Koroma pleaded guilty to 6 counts charges of mutiny, aiding and Abeiting, and communication with the enemy. He also tendered an apology to the court and the president of the Republic of Sierra Leone Dr Julius Maada Bio. He also stated that He was used to commit such acts that he did the act but not wholeheartedly.
