The three were recently blamed by the Gambian President for the escape of wanted army fugitive Kalipha Banjinka. They were later suspended  while investigations into their case was pending. But for some reasons, one of the accused persons, Nuru Secka decides to make a second come back by openly displaying his support for the President during his nomination this past week. To his utmost surprise, he was nabbed by the arresting officers detailed to pick them up. As we went to press  Secka, Sowe and Manneh were in custody. They were yet to be charged with any offence.
