            Gambian opposition man freed 
            
            
            
            The Gambian security services have released an opposition activist, Single Nyassi, who says he was abducted from his home nearly a month ago. 

            Speaking to reporters after his release, Mr Nyassi -- who is an executive member of the opposition United Democratic Party -- said he'd been held by the country's intelligence agency, and had been deprived of food and water for several days. 

            He said he was now considering taking legal action against the state. 

            Mr Nyassi's release follows an order from the High Court earlier this month, and pressure from the European Union. No charges have been laid against him.
