What’s your take on the detention of Charles Gyude Bryant – the former chairman of National Transitional Government of Liberia.
He was due in court about a week ago to start his case of “Economic Sabotage”, but never showed up. Court officials visited his residence, alledgely, on more than 2 ocasions to issue the “Notice of Assignment” to no avail. On Wednesday, he refused to be cited by the sherriff. As the result of these and more, he was served with the “writ of arrest” and subsequent commitment to have him detained on Friday. And by the way, he spent the night in jail and on Saturday, after he signed the Notice of Assignment at the Monrovia Central Prison…..he was released…………
On the other side………this is what “chuchu ar pepee” shared…..
“In view of the preceding however, I don’t know if the govt. has an air tight case on him. Few concerns:
1. Constitution and decisions of leaders in the discharge of their duties.
2. ECOWAS investigate report describing alleged discrepancies vs. professional audit using General Accepted Accounting Principles.
3. Pressure by U.N. and international donors to freeze assets of Liberians which legal minds suggests are violation of the constitution.
4. Govt. mishandling of legal matters in recent times (George Haddad, current treason case, etc.)
Discussion could go on and on…….. Am I wrong somebody?”…….
