Are there persons immuned from the investigations of the Commission?
The Act does not exclude any Sierra Leonean from investigation. However the Constitution of Sierra Leone, which is the supreme law, gives the President immunity from prosecution whilst he is in office. Sub section of Section 48 of the Constitution provides that while any person holds or performs the functions of the office of President, no civil or criminal proceedings shall be instituted or continued against him in respect of anything done or omitted to be done by him either in his official or private capacity.
