gambia Family members, colleagues and friends of several journalists who are being detained by security agencies have expressed disappointment at not being allowed access to the detainees.

According sources since the arrest of the seven journalists, nobody has had access to them adding that this was source of worry to them.

The sources added that human rights lawyer Lamin Camara, had made all attempts to visit the journalists, but he was not given access.

The sources said when Lawyer Camara wanted to contact the journalists, he was told to seek clearance from the director of the National Intelligence Agency but all effort to reach him failed.

  • A Pure Dictator is oppressing the Gambian Media. The Days of Jammeh & his Corrupt NIA officers has numbered now.. Freedom of speech in democracy is a must and if any Leader of a nation refuses criticism then He/she is a Coward, thief and a Pretender.

  • if you dont want the president to be criticised why not tell him to be on the right parth. what a poor judgement
