Crowd forms at Kairaba Police Station as charged Madi Jobarteh goes back to station for bail report

Concerned Gambians have descended on Kairaba Police Station to show support to Madi Jobarteh.

Mr Jobarteh was at the police station this morning to report following his release on bail on Tuesday.

Police on Tuesday called the prominent activist in for questioning over comments he made at a Black Lives Matter The Gambia protest last Saturday.

Mr Jobarteh in a Facebook post said the police official handling his case informed him that his bail has been extended to Thursday.

“I asked why is that and he said it’s a “directive” and he won’t say from who and why! The fight for human rights and democracy continues!” he said.
