Justice Minister Abubacarr Tambadou on Wednesday said the ministry of justice will vehemently prosecute Yankuba Touray.
The former AFPRC junta topshot was at the centre of dramatic scenes on Wednesday after he appeared before the TRRC but refused to testify to the commission. He was later arrested by the police.
“I was actually shocked by his behavior, by his contemptuous conduct towards not just the commission but the commissioners for whom he had total disregard. His actions today were really shocking and there is no excuse for this kind of behavior in any civilized society,” Mr Tambadou told GRTS Wednesday afternoon.
The Justice Minister added: “I can assure you that his defiance will not go unchallenged. It it as sure as daylight that my ministry will act in the most serious manner in supporting the commission’s important work for the country.
“We will not entertain or tolerate this kind of behavior from anyone including Mr Touray and we will set an example so that those who are even imagining they can do something like this and get away with it will think twice.”
