February 23, 2024

In a shocking revelation, a police officer, Constable 17533 Joseph Regina Lebbie, has been dismissed from the Sierra Leone Police for assaulting his own mother. This disturbing event came to light during a press conference held by the Director of Operations at the Sierra Leone Police, Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) Dr. John Martin Senesie, at Police Headquarters on George Street in Freetown.

Constable Lebbie was summoned by the Inspector General of Police, William Fayia Sellu, to explain his actions. However, he chose to remain silent and expressed readiness to face any consequences determined by the police.

Following an investigation, a tribunal found Constable Lebbie guilty of the offense and subsequently dismissed him from the Force without any benefits. Dr. John Martin Senesie emphasized that the Sierra Leone Police Force does not tolerate misconduct and will take strict legal action against any officer who violates the law.

This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of maintaining professionalism and integrity within law enforcement agencies. The Sierra Leone Police Force is committed to upholding its reputation and ensuring that its officers adhere to the highest standards of conduct.
