Hi Abdoukarim,

I am following everybody's reaction to the arrest of GPU journalists.
Of course, we are concerned and shocked about these arrests and we fully support you all and GPU.
We are preparing a press release about this case...

Could you please tell me whether you are sure or not that 7 journalists have been arrested instead of 5.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

It seems 7 journalist are arrested. Jammeh's days are numbered. The content of the letter is well meaning and the only thing he can do is his old style bullying. Free them now!

Dear All,
 
The GPU-USA has just received word from GPU-Gambia that senior members of their executive commitee were this morning arrested by the NIA. The arrests are apparently in connection with last week's GPU-Gambia press release criticizing Jammeh for saying that those who want to know who killed Deyda Hydara should go ask Deyda. Below is the text of the message received by GPU-USA this morning.
 
Senior members of the Executive (Secretary General, Vice President, Treasurer) of the Gambia Press Union (excluding the President who is currently out of The Gambia) and Pap Saine, Publisher, Ebou Sawaneh, Editor of the Point Newspaper were this morning called for NIA (National Intelligence Agency) Questioning. They are still believed to be held for Questioning. 
 
The GPU-USA vehemently condemns this latest bullying of innocent journalists by the Jammeh regime and its thugs at the NIA. We call upon all well meaning and right thinking Gambians and friends of The Gambia to join us in condemining this latest outrage and in calling for the unconditional release of all those arrested.
 
Signed on behalf of GPU-USA
Baba G. Jallow
Secretary General
