Mai Fatty was arrested yesterday and subsequently released, the state is
questioning his academic credentials as authentic. It is understood that the
police are making investigations to establish the allegation, but the whole
thing appeared to be politically motivated, it would be recalled that Mai
was amongst those that represented the fallen Baba Jobe and his prominence
with politically sensitive cases have put him squarely into the eyes of the
political storm that is brewing in the Gambia, as it is now it appears that
the state have launched a double prongued attack on both the independent
legal practitioners as well as the media, hence anyone perceived as a threat
will face a dirty tricks campaign. We should not be surprised that there
will follow many more allegations that will attempt to question the
intergrity of people, however, the Gambia people must remain steadfast and
be ready to decipher the lies that are being peddled to discredit peopl, Mai
as a young lawyer have been very impressive, he should be given the chance
to make mistakes and grow in the process, but to attempt to attack him in
the way that is being done is unwarranted. I hope Mais credentials are
authentic for he is proving to be potentially a very good advocate.
