Confirming the arrest of Francis Sahr Josiah, the Head of Operation at the Criminal Investigation Department headquarter in Freetown, Superintendent Samuel Kargbo told African Young Voices that the Minister of Information and Communications made a report like any other peaceful citizen, against the suspect for delving into his private life, and at the same time exposing him to public ridicule and disgrace, and also posting misleading information about his personality in the social media.

He said that Francis Sahr Joisah was helping the Cyber unit of Criminal Investigation Department with regards to his posting on facebook and that when investigations were completed, the suspect would be charged to court.

In an interview with Minister of Information and Communications, Mohamed Bangura, he expressed discontentment and outrage, whiles and vowing to take legal action against the Francis Sahr Josiah for posting misleading information about his personality, and further exposing him to public ridicule, contrary to the Public Order Act of 1965 of the laws of Sierra Leone.

He disclosed that the social media was not created to paint a grim picture or discredit the integrity and credibility of decent and hard working people in society, but that some misguided, way ward and insolent social media users were constantly misusing the social media, at the detriment of prominent and decent Sierra Leoneans like him.

 He concluded that nothing would debar him from taking legal action against Francis Sahr Josiah, who he said purported to be the Young Generation Leader of the Kandeh Kolleh Yumkela movement in Bombali district in the northern part of Sierra Leone.
