The Banjul High Court, presided over by Justice Ebrima Jaiteh Wednesday issued an order for the National Agency for Legal Aid (NALA) to provide a lawyer for an accused charged with assault and robbery.
Salieu Bah is facing two counts of robbery and assault. When the matter was called, he appeared without legal representation.
Then Justice Jaiteh asked the accused whether he could afford the services of a lawyer. Bah indicated that he could not.
At that stage, the presiding judge issued an order directing NALA to provide legal representation for Bah.
The matter was subsequently adjourned to November 11th, 2025, to allow the accused time to secure legal services from NALA.
The state was represented by prosecutor Saikou Lamin Jobarteh.
