Freetown - Sierra Leone's parliament has
made the harbouring of Ebola victims a
crime drawing a two-year prison sentence in
an attempt to stop the spread of the deadly
virus, the justice minister said on Saturday.
"The amendment is needed at this time
taking into account the fact that when the
1960 ordinance was drafted and passed into
law, a disease such as Ebola did not exist,"
Justice Minister Frank Kargbo told Reuters.
