FORMER BODYGUARD OF SIERRA LEONE’S EX-PRESIDENT ERNEST BAI KOROMA FOUND GUILTY OF TREASON.
A former bodyguard of Sierra Leone’s ex-President Ernest Bai Koroma has been found guilty of treason and sentenced alongside 10 others over a failed coup last year.
Amadu Koita Makalo, who is also a former soldier, was sentenced to 182 years in prison on charges of treason, murder and shooting with intent to murder.
The charges followed attacks by gunmen on a military barracks and prisons last November.
It came months after a disputed election which saw President Julius Maada Bio narrowly re-elected for a second term.
More than 2,000 prisoners were freed and at least 20 people killed before the government regained control, terming the attack an attempt to overthrow the government.
