Indeed Lamin. Thanks for sharing and I hope young magistrates like Jallow will be preserved by this callous regime. He reminds me of a young magistrate Darboe who bravely refused to succumb to dictatorial pressure and handled case by case with the highest degree of independence. That did not end well and the nation lost a valuable resource whose services like many other promising Gambians end up being rendered to other home nations away from Gambia. thanks Demba On Wed, Dec 3, 2014 at 2:59 PM, Lamin Darbo <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Demba > > Accolades to Magistrate Dawda Jallow who just returned from the UK.
