Gambia Press Union First VP Released From NIA Custody

Monday, 11 March 2013 19:33

(JollofNews) – Baboucarr Ceesay, Gambia Press Union (GPU) First Vice-President has been released from NIA custody today.

The journalist 'disappeared' last Friday after being reportedly abducted by officials of the Gambian’s notorious National Intelligence Agency (NIA).

Both the NIA and the police had denied that the journalist was in their custody.

"I was abducted by some NIA officers last Friday. They stopped the taxi I took and forced me to follow them," Ceesay told JollofNews.

According to Mr Ceesay, he was abducted around Roland Clinic located in Churchill's Town, Serrkunda.

"They did not allow me to get in touch with my family," he added.

QUOTING Mams:
Lalo Kebba,
Please don’t take this as a personal attack, but why would you give such an advise to a law obedient citizen who is practicing his profession in his motherland? Why do Gambians run away from their God giving birth rights? If everyone runs away who will then speak-out and shed light on the truth? Please remember that “Freedom is not Free” If we want Freedom we must fight for it; stop running away because there is no place like home.
Fighting to establish rule of law is every Gambian’s Responsibility and we must support those who are in the frontline.
Much Love to you Mr. Ceesay

This is Gambia today where yaya jammeh’s murderous elements & agents are used to torment, terrorise, maim...& kill the very people yaya swore to protect without fear & favour...? Where can one be safe in Gambia today when Al(h)-munafiq Dr-acula yaya ajj jammeh is so-called “keeper” of ‘the key to the blood bank’.....?? This like others before is another staunch reminder to all & sundry on vitality of stringent efforts to reclaim the freedom & tranquillity we all cherish & knew as a way of life. Yaya the Predator will NEVER reason as he’s committed enough, & he’s sure, he won’t be forgiven when we finally caught up with him.
