Court sentenced Siye Abraha to five years imprisonment

The Federal Supreme Court in Ethiopia today sentenced former defense minister Siye Abraha to five years imprisonment on charges of corruption.

Since Siye has already been in jail for more than five years, he will be released. Siye, who many suspect, was jailed by the Woyanne regime because of his serious policy differences with Meles Zenawi, looked happy when the decision was read by the court.

The court sentenced the other defendants on the case, Fitsumzeab Asgedom, Beshah Azmete, Assefa Abaha and Tamrat Layne to five years, eight years, nine years, and three months imprisonment respectively. It means Fitsumzeab will also be released.

  1. Why is the MORON at Hagerfiker.com congratulating Seye Abraha. I have never seen the persecutor congratulating the prisoner especially when the prisoner wasn’t suppose to be in prison in the first place.
