The
trial involving Tina Faal could not proceed on 22 December 2016, before
Magistrate Kebba Baldeh of the Banjul Magistrates’ Court, due to the boycott of
court sittings by lawyers.
Tina
Faal is facing two counts of stealing and receiving goods by false pretence.
She
had earlier denied any wrongdoing.
To
prove their case, the prosecution had so far called three witnesses namely,
Ebou Badjie, Lawyer Omar Njie and Alieu Ceesay, who had already testified.
Alieu
Ceesay is yet to finish his testimony.
Tina
Faal has been accused of removing parts of an aircraft parked at Gambia
International Airport, but Lawyer Omar Njie, one of the witnesses, told the
court under cross-examination that he did not see Tina Faal removing the parts
from the aircraft.
