Balo Kanteh has explained how his father was made to look on as he got stripped and tortured at the NIA shortly after his arrest over the Farafenni attack.
Balo Kanteh explained how a vigilant police officer arrested him when a friend of his attempted to take him to his house to tend to his wound on his leg. He later saw himself at the NIA.
“They brought my father, my sister and another woman. They stripped me in front of my father,” Kanteh, 55, said in a moment which saw him break down in tears.
He added: “They removed my underwear and tied my hands and legs. Joe Mendy, Babadinding Jobarteh and Foday Barry then stood over me and started dripping hot plastic on me for me to talk.
“That’s what they were doing and Babadinding Jobarteh cut of one of my nipples with a razor blade.”
Kanteh was later sentenced to death over his role in the Farafenni attack.
