Africa-Press – Sierra-Leone. <\/strong><\/span>President Julius Maada Bio today joined mourners, family members, well-wishers and Sierra Leoneans at the inter-faith funeral service of 18 security personnel killed during what has been described by the government as \u201ca failed attempted coup in Freetown\u201d on 26 November, 2023.<\/p>\n

The President stated that those killed in action, among them 15 members of the Republic of Sierra Leone Armed Forces, 2 officers of the Sierra Leone Police and a member of the Sierra Leone Correctional Service, \u201cstood steadfast in the face of treachery. They paid the ultimate sacrifice by standing fearlessly against the forces of anarchy and tyranny that threatened to engulf The Land That We Love…\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cFellow mourners, we gather here today, under the weight of immense grief, to honour our brave Military and Police Officers who lost their lives defending our democracy against the forces of darkness during the failed attempted coup of November 26th, 2023.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, we stand united in grief. We stand not just as mourners but as bearers of a sacred duty, a solemn responsibility to honour our fallen comrades. Their attackers, in their cowardly and selfish acts, sought not only to subvert our democracy but to shatter the trust of our people, the trust in our Military and Police Officers, and the trust in our nation\u201d.<\/p>\n

President Julius Maada Bio reminded that each one of the gallant officers had pledged to defend the constitution and the nation, stressing that, \u201ctheir unwavering commitment to their duty, loyalty to our country, and steadfast courage in the face of danger will forever be etched in our hearts\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs your Commander-In-Chief, I feel this tragedy\u2019s weight, burden, and sorrow. These Officers were my responsibility, my brothers in arms, my family in service. The pain of losing these brave officers is our collective pain as a nation. It is the pain of a mother losing her son, a sibling losing a brother, a child losing a father, a wife losing a husband, and a friend losing a dear friend,\u201d he said and vowed that their sacrifice would not be in vain.<\/p>\n

\u201cI assure you that everyone who has a hand in the cowardly act of November 26th that led to the death of these men will not escape the full weight of the law.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur resolve stands unshakable and fierce\u201d. \u201cWe will pursue justice for each of them with relentless determination, irrespective of the power or position of their cowardly assailants,\u201d he promised.<\/p>\n

The Chief of Defense Staff, Lieutenant General Peter K. Lavahun, the Inspector General of the Sierra Leone Police, William Fayia Sellu, and the Director General of the Sierra Leone Correctional Service, Colonel Sulaiman Sheikh Massaquoi also paid solemn tributes for and on behalf of their institutions they head.<\/p>\n

The inter-faith funeral service was officiated by the Chief Imam of the Maritime Wing of the RSLAF, Major S.Y. Kamara from the Muslim faith and Lt. Colonel B. S. Lebbie from the Christian faith.<\/p>\n

Chairman and leader of the opposition APC \u2013 Dr Samura Kamara wrote on Twitter this afternoon: \u201cMy fellow Sierra Leoneans, Today we pay tribute to the 18 servicemen and all the brave souls who lost their lives defending our young democracy during the failed coup attempt on November 26.<\/p>\n

\u201cTheir courage and sacrifice embody the spirit of our nation. We remember and honour each one of them. I am especially glad for their service to our native land. It\u2019s unfortunate that they had to die. May God put them in a better place-in His Merciful Hands. Thank you for your sacrifice.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the government, 57 people are now in police custody helping with their investigation, including former bodyguard of former President Ernest Bai Koroma \u2013 Amadu Koita who is reported to have been caught hiding in the cellar of a senior female police officer \u2013 Alima Bangura.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the organizers of the failed November 26 coup attempt, Amadu Koita, who was at the top of the wanted list, was arrested yesterday (Monday) at 11:30 pm,\u201d Information Minister Chernor Bah told a press conference in Freetown.<\/p>\n

Information Minister Chernor Bah has also disclosed that Alima Bangura, worked at the INTERPOL desk and the West Africa Police Information Systems at CID headquarters in Freetown..<\/p>\n

CCTV photo released today by the information ministry (Photo below)<\/b> appears to show Amadu Koita and a senior police officer Kabba Dumbuya who is also wanted by police, carrying guns. The date and time shown on the photo is 26th November 2023, at about 8.29 am. This the government says is clear evidence of Koita being one of the ring leaders of the alleged failed coup. The investigations continue.<\/p>\n
