Doesn't a judge sign a warrant for one to get arrested in Gambia? I wonder who is next on the arrest list. From http://www.observer.gm NEWS Tarik Musa arrested By Pa Malick Faye Jan 21, 2004, 11:49 Tarik Musa, proprietor of TK Motors the sole dealers of Mitsubishi in The Gambia, has been arrested and detained by the National Intelligence Agency since Sunday night. According to reports reaching Daily Observer, Mr Musa was arrested at the Banjul International Airport shortly after his arrival from a prolonged foreign trip during which he tied the knot with his fiancee in Lebanon. Following the news of his arrest, the Inspector General of Police was contacted but denied that Mr Musa was in their custody. The director-general of the National Intelligence Agency, Daba Marenah was said to have travelled out of town and his deputy, Pa Suso could not be reached for clarification. When contacted, the NIA public relations officer, Abdoulie Sanno, said, “I cannot say anything on this matter. I have not been at the office since Monday as I am right now busy with some official duties outside. You can contact the senior officers if you want to know anything about it.” However no senior official would volunteer information on the matter. However, this paper has learnt that Mr Musa has indeed been arrested and detained but could not confirm over what. Mr Musa’s partner and brother, Musa Musa, said to be the proprietor of Paparazzi, was also said to have been picked up but this could not be confirmed. © Copyright 2003 by Observer Company _________________________________________________________________ Scope out the new MSN Plus Internet Software — optimizes dial-up to the max! http://join.msn.com/?pgmarket=en-us&page=byoa/plus&ST=1 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To Search in the Gambia-L archives, go to: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/CGI/wa.exe?S1=gambia-l To contact the List Management, please send an e-mail to: [log in to unmask] To unsubscribe/subscribe or view archives of postings, go to the Gambia-L Web interface at: http://maelstrom.stjohns.edu/archives/gambia-l.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
