Citizens’ Alliance said its leadership and general membership are dismayed by the arrest and subsequent charges levied on its spokeswoman, Nenneh Freda Gomez.
In a statement, CA said: “Nenneh, a patriotic and a law abiding citizen, was arrested with some of her staff and a journalist, taken to Senegambia Police Station and later charged at the Kairaba Police Station on two counts – criminal trespass and malicious damage of property – in her attempt towards reclaiming a property rightfully belonging to her and her partners.
“We wish to unequivocally stand in solidarity with our colleague, while calling on the police to immediately drop both charges and promptly release them without delay.
“In the same vein, we wish to remind the police that right to property and freedom of expression are fundamental human rights guaranteed in our constitution.”
