A court has given a man named Abubacarr Jarra a very long punishment. He will spend ten years in prison because he did something mean with private pictures of a woman.
Jarra took a phone belonging to a woman named Awa Sumareh. He found private pictures of Awa on the phone and shared them with many people through WhatsApp messages. He even sent the pictures to Awa's husband, who lives far away in Europe. The police said Jarra wanted to make Awa feel bad and upset.
The phone Jarra stole was worth D9,500. It happened last December in Dampha Kunda, in the Upper River Region. Jarra is from Mali but lives in The Gambia.
Mr Peter Che, who works as a judge in the Basse court, said Jarra must go to prison for three years because he stole the phone. The judge added seven more years because Jarra shared Awa's private pictures without asking her. He will have to stay in prison for all ten years.
