Is this some new collaboration between 'patriotic citizens' among students and the police.

      Student agent provocateur arrested
     

Alagie Bah, 22, a student from Foni Bondali, was detained Friday at the Bakaloho Skills Centre Tabakoto as he was allegedly inciting students to go on a demonstration on Monday, May 15. 

The police crime management coordinator, Jai Sowe, told Daily Observer  that Bah went to the school three times to exhort the students to go on a demonstration on Monday.  He said a 'patriotic citizen'  reported the matter to the Bundung police station. 

Bah was arrested when he returned to collect his bicycle which he left at the school, the police said. 

Mr Sowe said Bah named Ousman Badjie, Yaya Conteh and Abdoulie Sey as non-students who supported  him in his errand. 

The accused, Alagie Bah, told our reporter in his Kairaba police station cell that he repented his action. 

"It is evil forces which got me involved in such actions," he said. 

Mr Bah accused certain people from Bundung Bantaba as offering him D50 to go into schools to call for the demonstration. 

The police spokesman, Abdoulie Sanyang, told Daily Observer the police are investigating the matter.
