Upon the reading and explanation of the charges, Mansaray did not offer a plea. Prosecutor Sergeant 9906 Umu Jalloh served the defendant with the relevant legal documentation.

The defendant was not legally represented during the court proceedings.

Magistrate Gbloh denied bail and ordered Mansaray to be held at the male correctional facility in Freetown. The case has been adjourned until December 17, 2025.
