The Liberian Government has declared nine persons wanted for their alleged involvement in arson attacks on three villages in Bong County.

The Ministry of Justice wants the nine individuals to report to the Liberia National Police within 24 hours to assist with investigation into the recent incident that led to the burning down of several villages and towns.

According to a Justice Ministry statement Monday, the towns include Diakpansu, Vuku Town and Kolu Town.

Those declared wanted by the government are Joseph Noah, Morris Kpagai, Prince Vuku, Ralph, Black Coffee and Ernest Dennis.

Others are Aaron Jarmuyah, Kerkulah Gbonkai and Charles Vuku.
