Temple of Justice, The Civil Law Court for Montserrado County, sitting in its June Term A.D. 2025, has issued a Writ of Ne Exeat República against Mr. Hassan Fadiga and Mr. Hussein Fadiga.
The writ, signed by Clerk of Court Victor G. Gailor and issued under the directive of Assigned Circuit Judge His Honor George W. Smith, prohibits both men from leaving Liberia while legal proceedings are ongoing.
The writ was issued following a petition filed by Mr. Abraham K. Kromah, former head of the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency (LDEA).
In his filing, Kromah alleged that the Fadigas are preparing to leave the country “to foreign parts” in a manner that could be detrimental to his legal interests.
While specific details of writ remain unclear, the court determined that there was sufficient cause to prevent the respondents from departing the jurisdiction.
Mr. Hassan Fadiga is listed as the first respondent in the case, while Mr. Hussein Fadiga, known publicly as a social commentator, is named as the second respondent.
Both have been ordered to appear before the Civil Law Court no later than 10:00 a.m. on June 19, 2025, to respond to the petition.
The court has further instructed that if the respondents are unable to post bail approved by the court, they are to be remanded to the Montserrado County Central Prison until such time as they can meet the bail conditions.
The Sheriff of Montserrado County has been directed to arrest the respondents and ensure their appearance in court. The writ also requires the Sheriff’s official return of service to be submitted to the Clerk of Court by the June 19 deadline.
This legal move has attracted public attention, particularly due to Mr. Hussein Fadiga’s outspoken presence in national discourse. Legal analysts note that the issuance of a Writ of Ne Exeat República, a rarely invoked but significant legal tool—underscores the seriousness of the petitioner’s claims and the court’s intent to retain jurisdiction over the matter.
