A man accused of assault causing actual bodily harm was recently arraigned at the Kanifing Magistrates’ Court.

Alhagie Jallow denied the charge and was granted court bail of D50,000 with a Gambian surety who must deposit an ID card.

The charge sheet that was read in court stated that on 6 November 2011, at Bakau Sanchaba, in the Kanifing Municipality, the accused, Alhagie Jallow, assaulted one Oumie Sarjo Jallow by giving her blows on her mouth repeatedly, causing her to lose two of her teeth, thereby causing her actual bodily harm on her upper lip.

Hearing continues on 14 December 2011.
