Count two read that the accused, Lamin Shabba Danso, converted the ownership of the three vehicles: one Audi S6, one 190 Mercedes Benze and one BMW X-5 by registering the same in his name at the licensing department after such convert ion, did pledge the Audi S6 and the MBW X-5 to one Abdou Nyang Mendy and Ousainou George respectively and wrongly sold the Benz 190 to one Matarr George, knowing such vehicles were financed by Diana Van Weert for a joint business at the TDA.
