Days after court nullified her first criminal appearance bond on legal grounds, former Executive Mansion Chief of Protocol Nora Finda Bundoo has submitted a new criminal appearance bond before Criminal Court “C” at the Temple of Justice after the court rejected an earlier bond challenged by prosecutors.
The revised bond package includes a property valuation bond valued at US$240,000 and an affidavit of human surety executed by three individuals who have undertaken to ensure Bundoo’s appearance before the court whenever required.
According to court documents, the property bond is secured by developed land in Zwedru, Grand Gedeh County. The surety declared ownership of real property valued at US$240,000, which has been pledged to guarantee Bundoo’s attendance throughout the trial until the case is concluded.
The accompanying affidavit identifies three individuals serving as human sureties. Under the agreement, the sureties have committed to producing Bundoo before Criminal Court “C,” or any other court to which the case may be transferred, whenever she is summoned to answer the charges against her.
Court records show the bond documents were sworn before a Justice of the Peace on July 6, 2026, and approved by Assigned Circuit Judge Ousman F. Feika on July 7, 2026.
Bundoo is being prosecuted by the Assets Recovery and Property Retrieval Task Force (AREPT), through the Ministry of Justice, on multiple charges, including money laundering, theft of property, misuse of public money, property or records, criminal conspiracy, forgery, and criminal facilitation.
The submission of the new bond follows an earlier ruling by Judge Feika, who declined to approve Bundoo’s initial criminal appearance bond and ordered the defense to file a legally sufficient replacement within 72 hours.
With the revised bond now approved, Bundoo remains free under the conditions of the bond but is required to appear before the court for all scheduled proceedings. The approval of the bond does not affect the substance of the criminal charges, which remain pending before Criminal Court “C.”
The case is one of several corruption prosecutions currently being pursued by the Assets Recovery and Property Retrieval Task Force under the Ministry of Justice.
