Double Punishments For LAJ

The Popular Musician Alhaji Amadu Bah alias LAJ has received double punishments after being found guilty on all four count charges levied against him.  On Monday 16th March, Justice Adrian Fisher Convicted LAJ on all the charges levied against him but reserved his sentence for him until Friday based on his plea mitigation put forward by him.

LAJ after hanging heads with his lawyers about his pleas mitigation appeared in Court on Friday and dressed in White Shirt and blue jean and made a very emotional appeal to Justice Fisher for him to get his freedom back.

In his plea, LAJ said: “I Stand before you not as LAJ, the Icon but as a human being… A human being who makes mistakes, and who hangs out with the wrong people at the wrong place and at the wrong time. I say sorry to my fans, I say sorry to my family, I say sorry to the attendants. I take full responsibility for my action and that I have learnt a lesson”, LAJ Tells the Court. His pleas put the courtroom in a very emotional mood and that led the Judge to stand down the matter until 4Pm.

After making his passionate appeal, Justice Fisher sentenced LAJ to 9 Years and ordered him to pay compensation to the victim. This sentencing comes against the oral submission made by the state counsel, who inter alia,  called for the convict to be sentenced to 15 years imprisonment on the various Counts.
