In his plea to the aforementioned information, the accused Jallow stated: “When the charge, along with the particulars of the offense, were read to him in English and translated to the Fula language he claimed to understand and opted to speak in his trial.” I did not rape her, but I did have sex with her twice, once in my compound and the other close to hers. She is my uncle’s daughter, and we talked about getting married.

The prosecution, on the other hand, called six witnesses and presented four exhibits in an effort to support their case. In contrast, the accused testified on his own, did not call any other witnesses, and did not present any evidence in his defense.
