Officer’s Family Thrown out of Their Home
By Bubacarr Sowe
The family of Bakary Camara, an ex-lieutenant, have been thrown out of their house following his dismissal from the Gambia Armed Forces (GAF).
Mr. Camara who was President Jammeh’s body guard was dismissed from the military because of accusations of stealing a government vehicle.
“It’s true he has been dismissed from the military,” says GAF spokesperson, Lieutenant Alhagie Sanneh.
Even though Mr. Camara is not yet convicted of any offence his family was told to vacate their house at 11 New Primet Street in Banjul, because it is a government house where they have lived for over ten years.
Mr. Camara has maintained his plea of not guilty and so is ex-superintendent Manlafi Sanyang who used to be the head of the government vehicles unit and also facing similar charges of stealing.
Foroyaa has learnt that Mr. Sanyang is also sacked from the police force.
Both men are still in detention because they cannot meet the bail conditions granted to them by the High Court.
Mr. Camara is also in another case of stealing in which he was granted a bail bond of D50,000.
His co-accused, Mr. Sanyang, who is facing two separate cases of stealing, was unable to meet a bail condition of 200, 000 dalasis and a surety not less than the rank of a permanent secretary.
“We are not having a permanent secretary to bail him,” said his lawyer, Lamin Camara.
The trial of both men are due to continue today at the Banjul Magistrates Court.

Brother Janyanfara
Bombarde (Kawsu Camara) is not yet on the line. This is a different Camara, Bakara. You are not making any serious mistake, the next Camara might as well be Kawsu. |
