“The public will be duly informed about the outcome of investigations and individuals with relevant information about the incident are encouraged to come forward to assist with investigations.”

Mr Drammeh’s arrest comes two months after the chief of Kombo South Lamin Darboe who is a native of Gunjur made the bold claim Buba Drammeh had been sneaking into Gunjur.
