The matter was for the Defense Counsel H.M Gevao Esq representing the 5th accused person to continue his cross examination with PW1 (Hassan Kamara). And was asked about what the 5 accuse told him when obtaining statements from him about his designation as he was the revenue officer at EDSA and that he reported directly to his immediate Boss Mr. Musa Kamara.
However, Prosecuting Counsel M.
