Fatmata Sesay, the fugitive’s mother confirmed the stabbing of Alhaji Bangura by her son, to the Police, but said it was a mistake. She said the incident occurred when they forcefully kidnapped her son to be a member of his father’s secret society

She also told the police that, her husband who happens to be her son’s father together with his society comrades have made several attempts over the past months to have her son initiated into the secret society compulsorily.
