This is the more reason why this dictator should go; no one is immune to his murderous acts. If the AFPRC militants think that they are immune then they have a lot of learning to do from history.

The death, if >>confirmed, >>would be one of the most tragic events in The Gambia's recent political >>history. >>Mrs. Kamaso was picked up in April, earlier this year, while returning >>home >>from Senegal, where she was said to have taken a sick child for >>treatment. >>Though it was never really explained why, but shortly after her arrest, >>state >>media reported that she had been expelled from the party, thus >>automatically >>losing her seat in the National Assembly. Mrs. Kamaso won the Wuli seat >>running on APRC ticket but soon fell out with some of the local APRC >>dignitaries >>over her fierce independence and acclaimed sense of integrity. >>Some sources close to the APRC party had said that she was detained for >>passing a circular around other APRC National Assembly members asking >>them to >>take up the matter of farmers whose groundnuts had not been paid by >>state-sponsored groundnut buyers. Most of her constituents are farmers and >> depend on >>groundnut farming for cash sustenance. The story had it that though Mrs. >>Kamaso >>did this because she was going to be away from the Assembly's sitting in >>order >>to nurse a sick child, the matter of the petition was reported to the >>President, the ruling party leader, as if Mrs. Kamaso had been engaged in >>an >>attempt to organize a vote of no confidence against the Jammeh regime. >>Hon. Kamaso was arrested shortly after her arrival and before her >>expulsion >>from the party was made public. Since then Mrs. Kamaso had been kept >>under >>the custody of the NIA in mosquito infested makeshift cells, without >>access to >>lawyers and even members of her family. The arrest of persons elected by >>the >>people, who by right do enjoy some immunity from such arbitrary arrests, >>has >>become common recently in the country. Another APRC member of the >>National >>Assembly, Omar Demm, has been in detention since the foiling of the >>alleged >>coup attempt in March. The former Mayor of the country's largest >>municipality, >>Mr. Abdoulie Conteh also spent six weeks in detention earlier this year. >>There has yet been no official word on the widespread rumor of the former >>lawmaker's death. Also rife on the grapevines is the rumored death of >>former >>NIA director General, Abdoulie Kujabi. It is the third time rumors have >>been >>circulating this year on his alleged death. Mr. Kujabi, formerly very >>close to >>President Jammeh, has been in detention since March 2006 and has been >>seen in >>the hospital in Banjul six weeks ago. Though he was arrested in >>connection >>with the alleged coup attempt, Mr. Kujabi is yet to be formerly charged >>with >>any crimes. >>____________________________________ >> _Copyright_ (http://allafrica.com/copyright.html) © 2006 The Gambia >>Journal.
