UPDATE: Diplomat who was accused of sexually assaulting a 17 year old girl in 2020 has left The Gambia. According to reports, he was recalled by the Senegalese government. He never faced charges for the allegations against him due to diplomatic immunity.

6/ If for any reason the Senegalese government fails to take any of the available options, The Gambia must declare this perpetrator a person non grata because we should not allow any person to hide behind the cloak of diplomatic immunity while inflicting harm on children.

UPDATE: “When asked why the case file is still not sent to the AG, ASP Lamin Njie, police spokesman said even though the police have concluded their investigations, it does not mean its report into the matter is concluded.” https://t.co/HOos4feQIi

Update: Outcome of Bail Hearing

We are disappointed by the ruling that granted bail to the accused person.

We believe and remain in solidarity with Mama* and will continue to speak up and advocate for a free trial to ensure justice!

1⃣ in every 3⃣ women alive today have experienced some form of physical or sexual violence in their lifetime.

This is projected to increase due to the #COVID19 pandemic
