UDP leader Ousainou Darboe has just told reporters UDP’s voter registration monitoring team came under attack in Kanilai Saturday morning.
“They (natives of Kanilai) took a big rock and smash the windscreen of the UDP 2021 car. The rock landed on Ebrima Dibba’s hand and broke it,” Darboe alleged.
According to Mr Darboe, the five or six UDP officials were attacked by youth of Kanilai.
“As they ran to their car, the [IEC] supervisor told them these are people who have a right to be there [to monitor the registration] but they seriously beat that person too,” Mr Darboe alleged.
Police spokesman Lamin Njie could not immediately respond to a request for comment.
