Pa Salieu

Pa Salieu, a singer and rapper, was found guilty of being engaged in a fight in 2018. Salieu was said to be a part of a gang that assaulted a man called Bobby, which resulted in the death of Salieu’s friend and musician Neville Staple. Salieu has been sentenced to 33 months in prison, which equates to 2 years and 9 months. While delivering the decision, Judge Peter Cooke remarked that Salieu’s life had gone through a difficult period due to legal issues, but that he had always provided assistance whenever someone needed it. The judge continued:

“Those are things that speak favorably of you and should be considered in your favor.” I want you to concentrate on putting your life back on track and making the most of your skills, which I know you can accomplish.”

Pa Salieu was charged with using a bottle as a weapon.

Pa Salieu was recently sentenced for violent disorder and using a bottle as a weapon during the incident. The event occurred at a pub, and although his companion was slain, the case is still being investigated. The allegations of violent disorder were withdrawn earlier this year, but after the fight, he struck another guy, and the same charges were placed on him again. A gang of males chased Bobby, 23, according to a CCTV video. The prosecution said during the trial that Salieu threw a bottle at Bobby and assaulted him with a tree branch. Bobby was taken to the hospital and survived the tragedy.

Pa Salieu said he used the bottle to defend himself, but Judge Peter Cooke disputed this. Jonathan Woodcock, Salieu’s counsel, asked for a suspended sentence. The issue had an influence on Salieu’s career since he was unable to travel to other countries, causing his concerts to be canceled.
