Proceedings in the case of IGP v. 23 Accused Persons, involving charges linked to an alleged unlawful protest over the high cost of mobile data, were adjourned by the Kanifing Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday, February 3, 2026, after the accused and their legal counsel failed to appear in court.
The prosecution applied for a bench warrant due to the absence of the defendants. However, the court granted a final opportunity for their appearance, warning that the application for a warrant could be reconsidered if they fail to attend the next sitting.
The case has been adjourned to February 11, 2026, at 12:30 p.m., when proceedings are expected to continue with the cross-examination of Prosecution Witness One.
