Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>The Gambia Centre for Victims of Human Rights Violations has expressed its outrage following the publication of a report that the vice chairman of the AFPRC military interregnum, Sana Sabally, has been granted amnesty by the TRRC.<\/p>\n

The Standard reported on Friday that the TRRC Amnesty Committee \u201capproved\u201d amnesty from prosecution for former AFPRC vice chairman Sabally who admitted responsibility for the killing of many soldiers accused of a coup plot in 1994.<\/p>\n

Mr Sabally was among people adversely mentioned by the TRRC who applied for amnesty to the Amnesty Committee following the submission of the TRRC Report, which recommended the prosecution of specified categories of people found responsible for grave crimes.<\/p>\n

He was granted amnesty for giving a full disclosure during his testimony at the public hearings, according to the TRRC. But the Victims Centre said he showed no regrets over his participation in the killings of Lieutenants Basirou Barrow, Gibril Saye, Abdoulie \u2018Dot\u2019 Faal, and other soldiers.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is outrageous, discouraging and disheartening to hear. He killed our husbands in such a way, and called them enemies whose heads must be caught off like a snake,\u201d Fatou Sowe-Jaiteh, widow of slain sergeant Fafa Nyang, said at a press conference last Saturday.<\/p>\n

She said the victims cannot accept the recommendations for Sabally\u2019s amnesty. \u201cThat is what we want President Adama Barrow to know \u2013 that we are citizens of this country. Let him give us dignity and what we deserve.\u201d<\/p>\n

The briefing was organised in Kotu by the centre and other victim-led organisations in the country in the wake of the Standard expos\u00e9. The recommendations are \u201coutrageous, discouraging, and disheartening,\u201d said Adama Jallow, the national coordinator of the centre.<\/p>\n

In a statement, numerous victim-led organisations including the African Network Against Extrajudicial Killings and Enforced Disappearances, said the announcement was \u201cshocking\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201c[According to] section 19 (3) of the TRRC Act, Sanna Sabally SHOULD NOT qualify for amnesty because the crimes he committed form part of crimes against humanity. This therefore renders the \u2018approval\u2019 illegal and thus should not be acted on by the government.\u201d<\/p>\n
