The jailed army chief of staff Lang Tombong Tamba and some other security detainees at the mile two central prisons were caught with over D200, 000 dalasi cash in their cells, including some smuggled contrabands. The prisoners were also caught with mobile phones. This is one of the biggest catch of smuggled cash and cell phones ever recorded at the mile two prison. The convicts are helping the NIA with their investigations. It looks like the men were running the streets from the cell rooms. So many heads will roll in coming days. Phone records and the source of the cash is being investigated.

The email we received goes like this: “Do you know that Lang Tombong and co were caught with D200, 000 and mobile phone in their cells? Do you also know that a soldier caught with cannabis is President Yaya Jammeh’s bodyguard?”  Details are scanty.  We will keep you posted with developments.
