Madam Drammeh was found guilty on a single count charge of giving false information to a public servant, the police.<\/p>\n<p>Reading the brief facts in court, Police Prosecutor Sergeant Alieu Faye, said the incident happened on July 8 when the accused reported at Old Yundum police station that she met a woman standing at the Trust Bank branch in Yundum who begged her D50 which she obliged. But the accused further claimed that she ended up withdrawing D250, 000 from her account which she gave to the beggar along with a Tecno mobile phone valued at D4,000.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cActing on this information, the police wrote to the Bank to ascertain whether such amount of money was withdrawn and whether the CCTV footage captured the accused while transacting the withdrawal. The Bank replied to the investigation team that no such amount was withdrawn by the said accused and there was no footage of her on the CCTV,\u201d the policeman told the court.<\/p>\n<p>The police prosecutor further stated it was established that the accused was entrusted with D297,500 by her elder sister in the USA which she used for her own business and that she confessed to the police that the statement she earlier gave was false.<\/p>\n<p>Madam Drammeh begged the court: \u201cI was desperate and that is why I got involved in this. I did not misuse my sister\u2019s money either but I used it to help my husband. \u201c<\/p>\n<p>In passing his sentencing, the trial magistrate Krubally, said he has considered the nature of the charge and the honesty of the accused in not wasting the court\u2019s time, and also considered the accused\u2019s mitigating circumstances which he found shocking and touching. He said the Madam Drammeh showed remorse.<\/p>\n<p><b>Source: The Gambia | Standard News From The Gambia<\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amadou Jadama Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
