Fellow list members, I here by bring to you the updates on the political situation in the Gambia.since my last posting,i continue to talk with people in Basse and it's enviroment. The UDP Party leader-Mr.Ousainou Darboe,his deputy Yaya Jallow,propaganda secretary Lamin Waa juwara,Hon.kemesseng Jammeh and all the party supporters in the entourage are under arrest and are charged with murder. Tuesday at 5am Gambian time,i last spoke to independent political elders and senior UDP officials in Basse.They told me that,''we are really concern about this problem because over 50 UDP officials and supporters are keept in one small unhygienic police station and the lybia trained terrorist Baba Jobe is frequenly coming in and out of the station,using abusive language on both the police officers on duty and the detainees''.They said that when Baba Jobe arrived at Basse station, he requested for immediate release of the detained ''Government thugs''the defunct 22nd july movement and charge the opposition officials with murder which the police did. please,note i am in direct contact with the URD people and those who cannot talk to me directly on the phone are sending me fax. I will surely continue to give updates. Thanks for now, Saihou ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
