It provided victims with an opportunity to relate their accounts of abuses they suffered, promote non-recurrence, and, in appropriate cases and depending on available resources, grant reparations to victims.<\/p>\n<p>After over 871 days of testimony, starting on 7th January 2019, three hundred and ninety-two (392) witnesses testified before the TRRC giving evidence of human rights violations, including arbitrary arrests, unlawful detention, unlawful killings, torture, enforced disappearances, sexual and gender-based violence, inhuman and degrading treatment, witch-hunting, fake HIV\/AIDS treatment and general widespread abuse of public office.<\/p>\n<p>According to TRRC DIGEST, a publication of ANEKED, out of the 392 that testified, 79 were females, about 20%, despite women making up more than 50% of the population.<\/p>\n<p>Of the 79 women that testified, 63 were all victims mainly of sexual and gender-based violence (sexual assault, sexual abuse, sexual exploitation); forced abortion; forced marriage; torture, including rape as a weapon of torture; forced labour (including sex trafficking).<\/p>\n<p>The none or rather, unequal inclusion of women in the transitional justice processes, especially the TRRC processes, started way before the testimonies. For example, of the 11 commissioners of the TRRC, only 4 were women.<\/p>\n<p>Imran Darbo, a former staff of the Ministry of Justice who was involved at different stages in the TRRC processes, said that even though Gambia\u2019s TRRC was based on lessons from other countries, it did not succeed in women\u2019s inclusion \u201cbecause women were not prioritised\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Darboe however said women were involved in the implementation processes of TRRC. \u201cThey were included as deputies but this does not help in decision-making,\u201d he affirmed.\u201cThe majority of key departments of the TRRC were headed by men and assisted by women, so when it comes to main decisions, women don\u2019t decide.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The TRRC has a Gender Unit that consists of women only. On the contrary, the Communication and Outreach Unit members were all men, and there were no collaborations between the two units.<\/p>\n<p><b>Not Adequately Addressed<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Muhammed Sandeng, son of the late Solo Sandeng who was arrested and tortured to death during the 14th April 2016 peaceful protest, said Gambia\u2019s transitional justice processes generally \u201cis not as inclusive as expected\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the inception stage, consultations were made; few people like me were involved but our involvement was never in decision-making processes nor during policy formulation,\u201d he lamented. For the TRRC specifically, the young Sandeng said it did not \u201cadequately address\u201d youth and women issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe inclusion of women goes far beyond having women and gender unit. For example, women\u2019s wishes and aspirations were not adequately captured in the reparations processes otherwise some of the problems that are raised now would have been avoided. So it is a lip service inclusion for youths and women,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe government has taken the decision, for example, to release junglars but the victims did not know about it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>Involved? <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Mr Adama Jallow, a national coordinator of Victim\u2019sCentre claimed that \u201cwomen have been involved in all our advocacies and seeking for justice\u201d as part of theTRRC.<\/p>\n<p>The Victim\u2019s Center is an institution that looks at all categories of victims of the regime of Yahha Jammeh, including women. \u201cWe wrote a position paper, and victims are involved. Although, many of the victims are not happy with the reparations, \u201cMr allow said.<\/p>\n<p>Mr John Charles Njie, founder of the Transitional Justice Working Group who had worked closely with the TRRC, a good number of women should be part of the decision-making process.<\/p>\n<p><b>General Inclusion of Women<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Despite constitutional protection (section 28), the ratification of international treaties, the enactment of Women\u2019s Act in 2010, and the establishment of the Women\u2019s Bureau in 1980, and the Ministry of Gender, and Social welfare in 2019, Mr Sandeng said \u201cstill women continue to face marginalisation\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Mariama Jobarteh, a Researcher, gender activist, and founder of \u2018Fankanta\u2019 said women\u2019s inclusion is a national problem at all levels of The Gambia. In The Gambia, women represent more than half of the population (50.5%), and the majority (58%) of all Gambian registered voters are women, \u201cyet all the arenas in the country are largely dominated by men including politics\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Out of the 58 members of the National Assembly members, only five are women. At the cabinet level, there are only four women among 23 ministers. At the local leadership level, women constitute only eight out of the 120 councilors in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Nenneh Freda Gomez, a founding member of the Citizen\u2019s Alliance party, and former spokesperson of the party who had contested for the position of NAM in Latrikunda Yiringanya believe women can turn the table around and deplores the situation of Gambian women being excluded from politics.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWomen are not rightly included in the decision-making process. We are in this situation because we are made to women are never factored in when men sit to plan and make political decisions,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Well, she said, the government, the victims\u2019 center, and other CSOs involved in the transitional justice process said there is overall inclusion of victims in the decision-making process, as well prioritising of female victims. \u201cIs this the reality for victims and women?\u201d she asked rhetorically.<\/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>Annette Camara Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
