Continuing the story on the genocide by Jammeh, when the bodies left Brufut for the Hospital, on arrival at the 'Accident and Emergency' entrance, the orderlies came to help off loading the mutilated bodies. The CMC was present and insisted that before the bodies were taken to the mortuary, they must be searched. There and then, a thorough search was conducted on each body and some foreign currencies were found on about 4 bodies. The amounts were not much as the highest amount was about 500 Euros, 400 dollars,250 dollars and some CFA with an other. This clearly shows that these people were not mercenaries. They were on their way to Europe and nothing more. | During our preliminary investigations, Pa Jallow gave us some leads and we realized that a Gambian called Lamin Kejera was the agent based in the Gambia and he was supposed to receive the Ghanaians on arrival in order to join the waiting vessel, which waited for several days in the Gambian waters. Lamin Kejera's counterpart is a Ghanaian named Kofi based in Mbour, Senegal. The Ghanaians paid each 3 thousand dollars to Kofi and paid Kejera a commission and the rest to the Captain of the vessel. Lamin was later arrested and handed over to the NIA. Lamin went to Barra on July 22 to receive his guests, but he had to return to Serekunda later because he could no longer wait after spending several hours. Lamin called Kofi in Senegal to find out if the guys have left Mbour and Kofi told him according to lamin, that the guys have since left for Banjul and perhaps they meet rough waters on their way, but one of the guys have his mobile number and the sooner they arrived in Banjul, they will give him a call. Two weeks before the brutal incident, the CMC called us and said he has received a correspondence from the office of the Inspector General of Police which originated from the Spanish Embassy in Dakar, informing the Gambian authorities that a vessel is docked in the Gambian waters waiting for illegal immigrants to be taken to the canary Island and they want the Gambian security to work on this. Jallow, the CMC assigned the Interpol to carry a surveillance and verify the information. The vessel was still waiting for the guys to board. As the verification of the vessel was going on, these people arrived from Senegal and they were later arrested at Barra. Lamin Kejera called the captain of the vessel telling him that the guys have been arrested by the Gambian Police. The captain was panic and he had to flee the Gambian waters. As I am filing this story, Lamin Kejera is still in Mile 2 prisons. I am again sure Pa Jallow will not deny this information. This information is very vital because one day Jammeh will face the judges in the Hague and some of us will give evidence against him. If Kofi is sincere enough, he could release the names of those killed by the Gambian authorities. Another interesting issue in the whole issue is that even the National Assembly has not mentioned this matter. But Jammeh should remember that about 3 of the victims escaped from the scene and they are presently in Ghana. They have given a detailed account of what happen to them and their colleagues.
