Sonko forged a death certificate and it was presented in court, hence the case being thrown out.

Jumping bail and or skipping court doesn't mean that the judge has thrown the case against you out. The case is deemed active and with proper follow up, summons and warrants you can and should be prosecuted.
I thought so too, but, apparently things work differently in this country
