By Sekouba Jadam, Police Head Quarters Banjul.

Dear Editor,

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.
