The armed forces representatives argued that the continuous detention without trial of the two Junglers was against the law and their rights violated in the process, hence [he] emphasised the need to release them on bail pending the release of the government white paper due on or before 25th May 2022.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Victim Centre delegation expressed disappointment at the timing of the release of the Junglers especially when the white paper is about to be released. The centre expressed concern that the timing of the release could also be interpreted as a strategy to free the Junglers, especially considering the long delay by the government in taking the Junglers to court.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe centre further raised fears as to whether the two Junglers and those who were released earlier on will not jump bail or fail to appear when they are needed for prosecution.<\/p>\n<p>The chair of the meeting and the Armed Forces representatives gave the delegation all assurances that they would be monitored closely, and would be reporting on a weekly basis to the police to ensure their presence in the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Victim Centre and other victim-led organisations, held a press conference on 19th March 2022 on the Sana Sabally issue, and to further clarify their position regarding the release of the Junglers by the army.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
