Ousainou Bojang told the court that he did not kill the police officers Pateh Jallow and Sang J. Gomez or hurt Constable Ancy Jawo. He said that seven people who saw what happened all said they didn't see him there when the shooting occurred.
The police took Ousainou's phone from his house. They gave it to an officer named Sowe, who told Ousainou to remove the lock on the phone. The police then reset Ousainou's phone, erasing information.
Ousainou's lawyer, Lamin J. Darboe, asked the court to require the police to return all of Ousainou's things they took. He said Ousainou's diary could help him remember the password to his Google account and retrieve important information from his phone.
The prosecutor, AM Yusuf, didn't want to give back the items. He said Lamin J. Darboe should have asked for them sooner and was slowing things down. But he promised the court the police would return what they still had of Ousainou's belongings.
The judge, Justice Jaiteh, ordered the head of the Banjulinding Anti-Crime unit to give Ousainou back all his seized property. He said there would be legal trouble if they didn't follow the order.
Ousainou told everyone his WhatsApp messages with his girlfriend Cathlene proved he was having relationship problems with her. He said the police needed to find the real person who killed the officers and hurt Constable Jawo because it wasn't him.
