H-Lite Electrical appeared at the Kanifing Magistrates Court, on Wednesday, seeking the recovery of the sum of D89,518 from the Baobab Holiday Resort.
Testifying before the principal magistrate, Buba Jawo, Hanram Deswani, a salesman at Hi-Lite Electricals, informed the court that in November 2007, Abdoulie Kandeh, a representative of the Baobab Holiday Resort, collected electrical and building materials worth D100,018.
Mr Deswani recalled that sometimes later, Abdoulie Kandeh decided to return some items which included an air conditioner and a water pumping machine, bringing the initial amount of D100,018 to D89,518.
He told the court that Abdoulie Kandeh has since then failed to pay for the goods he had purchased, which according to him prompted Hi-Lite Electricals to file a suit against the resort, with Mr Kandeh appearing as the second defendant in the case. However, the defendants have denied liability. The case was then adjourned to September 24 for the cross-examination of the witness.
