Gassa, Thanks for quickly letting the Gambia L in on this news. However, I must say that I have carefuly scrutinized your posting, and subsequently went back to the recent postings regarding Alagie Mbye's recent experience with the NIA. I must echo that there are those of us on the L who try to apply a very well balance opinion regardless of what the issue is. You can consider us the supreme court of the Gambia L, for we do not care if one is PDOIS, UDP, NRP or APRC or sympathisers of the Gambia, as we religiously read all the postings and try to make suggestions or observation where we see fit. I must also applaud you for being among the few people who feel the need to defend the status quo in view of the apparent and obvious majority of the L who vehemently oppose your views. Finally, I must also say that, I fail to see the parallell between the two stories you' ve eluded to. What does one being ALLEGEDLY tortured by the NIA has to do with one's ALLEGED dishonesty? They are two separate issues and must be separated. I see APPLES and ORANGES.
