Sori Manneh, a driver in Brikama was on Wednesday arraigned before Brikama Magistrates' Court, presided over by Magistrate EF Mbaye on charges of road obstruction, contrary to Motor Traffic Act, Laws of The Gambia.

According to the particulars of the offence, Sori Manneh on May 10, 2007, in Brikama town, parked a vehicle at a place that's said to be a no-parking-area.

When the charge sheet was read, he plead not guilty.

Musa B Njie, a Police Mobile Traffic Officer attached to Brikama Police Station, testified that the accused was carrying passengers, and parked the vehicle at no-parking point.
