Legal luminary, Femi Falana has, however, revealed that “ the buck stops on the desk of the trial judge, not the president.”

Koroma was indicted for treason and other offences on Wednesday, January 3, 2024, in front of Magistrate Santigie Bangura at Magistrate Court #2.

The former President was charged with four offences, including treason, misprision of treason, and two counts of harbouring.

Koroma was represented by Joseph F. Kamara and other lawyers.

The Ministry of Information promised to provide updates on the proceedings.
