Printer friendly page Magistrate Stephen Conteh of Court No.1 in Freetown has acquitted and discharged the two pilot of a mysterious plane that recently landed at the Lungi International Airport without official authorization.
Edwin Hamilton and Bruce Younge were both discharged ON Monday 7th September 2009, after being fined the sum of US$20,000 (Twenty Thousand United States Dollars).
The two were ordered by the magistrate to submit their passports to the court until their fine obligation is fulfilled.
Magistrate Stephen Conteh however, warned that the passports of the pilots, plus all title deeds submitted to the court by the sureties, be immediately handed over to the rightful owners upon payment of the fine.
Reports have it that a plane that reportedly left Ndjamema in Chad landed in Sierra Leone on the night of Tuesday 25th August 2009 without official landing permit.
Before the plane could finally land, the pilot through the Air Traffic Control Tower allegedly informed that he had a landing permit, but failed to read out the serial number of the permit when asked to do so, on grounds that it was locked in his brief case.
He then reportedly proceeded to inform the control tower that he can’t go any further on grounds that the plane had run out of fuel. It was eventually allowed an emergency landing permit by the airport authorities.
The decision of the Magistrate to hand down the verdict on the accused person came in the wake of several adjournments requested and granted the defence counsel.
