Reported Dismissal Hangs Over NSA Director's Aide Peter Jallah Amid Gang-Sodomy Investigation

Monrovia, Liberia: Unconfirmed reports indicate that Peter Bon Jallah, Special Assistant to the National Security Agency Director, Major General Prince C. Johnson, is facing possible dismissal from the agency following his arrest and subsequent investigation in connection with the alleged gang-sodomy case of a 15-year-old boy in Sinkor, Monrovia.
If confirmed, the decision would mark one of the most significant administrative actions within the agency in recent years.
Despite the institution has not publicly confirmed the move, insiders report that the dismissal is under review, underscoring the seriousness of the claims and the agency’s need to reinforce accountability at the highest levels.
The reported administrative action is said to be a direct consequence of Jallah’s arrest on Tuesday, January 6, 2026, at the Liberia National Police headquarters, following a formal complaint from the victim’s family regarding an assault believed to have taken place in late December 2025.
According to sources, the alleged dismissal is unprecedented in scale, reflecting the agency’s attempt to demonstrate accountability at a moment of intense public scrutiny.
The alleged gang-sodomy involving Jallah and two other unidentified runaway suspects, central to the potential dismissal, involved a 15-year-old community-based soccer player who was discovered in critical condition on Saturday, January 3, near a beach in Sinkor.
Residents who found him immediately alerted his family and ensured he was rushed to a medical facility, where he remains under intensive care, drawing national attention to both the severity of the crime and the potential administrative consequences for those implicated.
Family members claim the teenager was lured with the promise of football boots before being assaulted, later identifying Jallah and two other unidentified men as the perpetrators. These allegations have reportedly informed the NSA’s consideration of his status, with internal sources describing the reported dismissal as a decisive measure to reinforce ethical and operational standards within the agency.
Preliminary medical examinations reportedly indicate sexual violation, though full documentation remains confidential to protect the minor victim and preserve the integrity of the ongoing investigation.
The reported dismissal, if formalized, would represent a rare instance of high-level accountability within Liberia’s security sector, emphasizing the NSA’s commitment to ethical conduct and responsiveness to criminal investigations involving its personnel.
