Gambia s Attorney General and Minister of Justice, Dawda A. Jallow, Wednesday confirmed governmental approval to prosecute former President Yahya Jammeh for alleged atrocities. Minister Jallow relayed.
On Christmas Eve, six months after it was first announced, the final report of the Gambia Truth Commission (TRRC) was made public. Primarily, in its first volume, it has recommended dozens of prosecutions and, unsurprisingly, targets former President Yahya Jammeh. The Commission is currently carrying out a sensitive review of amnesty applications.
