Unlock the harrowing truths behind the National Intelligence Agency's brutal operations in The Gambia from 1996 to 2016. Through torture, unlawful arrests, and enforced disappearances, the NIA operated with total impunity to ensure former President Yahya Jammeh’s iron grip on power. We dive deep into the shocking conditions at Mile 2 prison, the erosion of judicial independence, and the manipulation of court rulings by mercenary judges. This is an episode that not only recounts the atrocities but also emphasizes the urgent need for justice and reform.
Discover the TRRC's comprehensive recommendations for transforming The Gambia’s future, from prosecuting NIA officials to overhauling the judicial and prison systems. We outline the government’s commitment to these reforms from 2023 to 2027, including the renaming of the NIA and significant security sector changes. Learn about the collaborative efforts of various institutions to restore human rights and accountability. This episode is a powerful testament to the resilience of a nation striving to rectify past injustices and build a fairer society.
