The Kenema Police Tribunal has recommended the dismissal of Constable Desmond Lewis currently standing trial in the Kenema Magistrate court on human-trafficking allegations.
Desmond and a nurse, Christiana Alpha are expected to make their first appearance in the High Court Kenema where the matter had been committed by the resident Magistrate Momoh Jah Steven.
Constable Brima Jusu Musa of the police community relations department said that the tribunal, presided over by Inspector Yambasu and prosecuted by Sergeant Marrah, charged Desmond with corruption and improper practise for using the police for his own advantage, among other things, which prejudiced the good name of the Sierra Leone Police.
He said that if the recommendation was granted Desmond would immediately be dismissed from the police force.
