FrontPage AfricaMONROVIA – The National Civil Society Council of Liberia (NCSCL) has called for re-arrest and prosecution of two rape suspects recently released in Nimba County. “The Council believes that the manner and form in which Judges Dahn and Guoigoah released the two statutory rape suspects is questionable and needs to be looked into,” it added. The judges conceded they erred by releasing the suspects but the group said their actions did not show they regret their decision. It claimed that the court was reluctant to provide detailed information that led to the release of the two alleged perpetrators despite a number of follow-ups by Nimba-based civil society organizations.
