Mr Jaba Donle, who spent 17 years in prison without trial after being declared mentally unfit, has finally been released and reunited with his family, thanks to the tireless efforts of Assistant Superintendent of Prisons (ASP) Majid Alhassan and the leadership of Wa Central Prisons.

Mr Donle, now 54, was arrested in 2007 for allegedly murdering his younger brother with a piece of wood during a period of mental instability.

He was placed under Presidential Pleasure (PP), a sentence that mandated he remain in custody until deemed fit to stand trial.

However, long after regaining his mental stability, Mr Donle remained in Wa Central Prison, with no set discharge date or prospect of a trial.
