The treason and murder trial involving Abdoulie Sonko and the state proceeded in court on Thursday 29,April 2007.

Sonko is alleged to have taken part in the military assault on the Farafenni Army Camp in November 1996. In her submission before Justice Monageng, Merley Wood who is prosecuting the case, told the court that she had been unable to get the pictures required in court as evidence, and applied for the case to proceed.

As the sixth prosecution witness, Lieutenant Colonel Biran Saine began to answer that he can recognise the "bearded man" in the said pictures, the defence objected to the question that was asked by the prosecution.

Defence counsel, Mai Fatty, said the prosecution cannot give reference to a picture that is not before the court. Mr. Fatty argued that it can amount to hearsay evidence. The prosecution at this point applied for an adjournment in order to reply to the defence's argument. Trial continues today.
