According to the charge sheet, Mr Thomas on or about 25th of November 2022, at Brusubi, with malice aforethought caused the death of Omar Sonko.

But taking his plea before a crowded courtroom, Mr Thomas denied all charges. At that juncture, Justice Mboob ordered for him to be remanded as the charges against him are non bailable.

Hearing resumes today.
