According to eye-witness report, Alusine is said to have been in the company of Ibrahim Sesay for quite some time, with both of them seen on a regular basis attending clubs, bars, parties, and football matches. It was therefore shocking to discover that they were gay.

Upon arrival of the angry youths in the area, Alusine and his partner managed to escape through the back door of the house.
The angry youths threatened to kill them for demonic practice in the community.
According to our investigation, Alusine was disowned by his family for the same reason and droven away.

They wished that he had been killed by the youths, as that would mean good riddance.
Same sex practice in Sierra Leone is illegal and denounced by both religious faiths in the country as demonic and satanic. Often, people discovered to be inclined to such practices are taken into the bush away from Communities to be treated by spiritualists, often resulting in their deaths. No one has ever been brought to the police for such reprisals against those with such sexual orientation. In some communities, even advocates are targeted for advocating for the recognition of such practices, which are described as demonic.
