UDP Party militants

Since the unlawful arrest and torture to death in custody on the 14th April 2016 of the United Democratic Party (UDP) youth leader, Mr Ebrima Solo Sandeng and the subsequent arrest of the party leader Lawyer Ousainou Darboe and his executives on the 16th April, the government of The Gambia has continued to arrest and intimidate people who openly show their unreserved support against Yahya Jammeh’s persecution of political opponents. Most of the arrestees are arrested on the 9th May 2016 whose only crime is to demonstrate their support for Darboe and Co. Mostly, they are secretly arrested overnight and most of them are tortured and detained incommunicado without any contacts with the outside world.
