The lawyers representing Dumo Sarho, Emmanuel Joof and Ba Tambadou, who last
Friday succeeded in meeting him for the first time since he was detained in Mile
Two Central Prisons in June were told by the detainee that he was locked in
cells at the central prisons for 23 hours daily.

Emmanuel Joof expressed dismay over the 'bad' treatment meted out to their
client.

Meanwhile over 800 people appended their signatures on a petition from the Human
Rights Coalition, calling on President Jammeh and the Secretary of State for
Justice to urgently release Dumo Sarho and others who have been in detention
since June.
