DETENTION WITHOUT TRIAL UPDATE
Five months after the presidential elections, detention without trial is still not a thing of the past. It seems to have come to stay. The detainees listed below are still held in detention without trial.
Even though the High Court ordered the released of one of them, Master Tamba Fofana, (a head teacher) in December 2006, the government is yet to comply with that court order.
There is a slight change in the list prepared last month. Dr. Badara Loum was on Thursday 22 February 2007 released on bail upon application to the High Court. A reliable source has informed this paper that the state has preferred charge against him.
Businessman and UDP supporter was released unconditionally on 13th February 2007. Furthermore, unconfirmed reports reaching Foroyaa say that even though former Chief of Protocol, Mr. Baboucarr Jobarteh, is still held at Mile II, he has undergone a process. As soon as the reports are confirmed we shall inform our readers accordingly.
