Ylva,
Dumo's name is mentioned as Modou Saho here:
<<Between June 22 and 23, security agents arrested and detained four civilians
(Ebrima Yabo, Ebrima Barrow, Momodou Marenah, Modou Saho) and two security
officers (lieutenants Lalo Jaiteh and Omar Darboe) on suspicion of attempting
to violate state security. Persons claiming to be security forces abducted
the civilians from their homes; initially, both the NIA and police denied
knowledge of their arrests and detentions. After 3 weeks of complaints by
their families, the Inspector General of Police revealed that the four
civilians and two security officers had been arraigned before a Magistrates'
Court on July 14 on charges of treason. According to their attorneys, the
accused were not charged within the constitutionally required 72 hours. At
year's end, some of the individuals were released, but others continued to be
detained pending a trial.>>
