The Kanifing Magistrates’ Court presided over by Magistrate Ngube, on 9 May 2012, summoned one Lamin Manneh to appear before the court.
The defendant, Lamin Manneh, was sued by Malick Jah, for the recovery of D142,600.
When the hearing commenced, the court asked the plaintiff if that was the sketched plan of the said land. The plaintiff replied that the said plan had a stamp of an alkalo, which was not the appropriate document.
