Preface

“I know something about this case. It stated since 2005 during the
time we came to the Court to summon the defendant for refusal to
share bed with her husband and the Court advised us to go and
negotiate …… and if that resulted negative then the husband can write
the divorce letter to divorce his wife”.
At page 6 also in the same page he stated that:
“I went to the husband just to reconcile between them and indeed that
reconciliation resulted positive that is why the husband did not go to
Cadi again”. Also in the same paragraph he said.
“But after five weeks the wife started bringing problem again …. That
the only time I sat with the husband was the time he told me that he is
afraid of himself because he is a blind man and the wife has started
betting him and even his Children are abusing him at his own
compound”.
On the other side the defendant / appellant indirectly denied the claim as she
said on page3 of the record:
“Eventually he told me to get out of his compound, then I asked him
the divorced letter, he replied that the letter is tendered to Mr.
Sankung, and what he said that my Children have beaten his wife is
not true at all.”
To support her defense she called three witnesses. The first witness
Suturing Keita on the 24 th /2/2010 testified before Kanifing Islamic Court that:
“I don’t know nothing about that said divorce yes I once knew a
problem occur between the couple, that was one day the husband
came to me saying that his wife who is Kalla Keita has abandoned to
share bed with him and for that matter I spoke to the wife”.
