Africa-Press – Gambia. <\/strong><\/span>Ousman Sonko, a 54-year-old former interior minister of the Gambia, goes on trial for crimes against humanity in the Swiss Federal Criminal Court in the city of Bellinzona Monday for his alleged role in a series of crimes perpetrated against Gambians under the 22-year rule of small country\u2019s former dictator Yahya Jammeh.<\/b><\/p>\n

Jammeh ruled Gambia with an iron fist and was accused of numerous human rights violations including murder and severe torture by the country\u2019s Truth, Reconciliation and Reconciliation Commission. Sonko first served in the military, rising through the ranks to command the State Guards, an elite military unit which guards the Gambian presidency, in 2003.Sonko would serve both as the head of the Gambia police and the interior minister presiding over the internal security matters of the country from 2005 to 2016.<\/p>\n

In 2016, Sonko fell out with Jammeh and fled to Switzerland. He was arrested in Bern in January 2017, a day after the Geneva-based rights organization\u2014 Trial International\u2014 filed a criminal complaint against him. He was formally indicted by the Swiss Office of the Attorney General before the Federal Criminal Court in April 2023.<\/p>\n

Sonko faces charges of murder, rape, false imprisonment, torture, among others. Nine Gambian victims are bringing the case against him in the three-week trial which ends by January 30. A tenth plaintiff passed away in October allegedly as a result of lasting injuries inflicted by Sonko.<\/p>\n

The Swiss Office of the Attorney General also accuses Ousman Sonko of having co-perpetrated deprivation of liberty and acts of torture of peaceful demonstrators in 2016, when he was Minister of the Interior. These acts have been qualified by the Swiss prosecutor as crimes against humanity.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis trial is a significant moment in Swiss judicial history,\u201d said Leslie Haskell, president of TRIAL International. Sonko is the second person to face trial in Switzerland under the principle of universal jurisdiction which holds that crimes against humanity are committed against all humans regardless of where they were committed. The first person to face trial in Switzerland under universal jurisdiction, Alieu Kosiah of Liberia, was convicted and sentenced to 20 years prison in 2022. \u201cOusman Sonko will also be the highest-ranking state official ever to be tried for international crimes under the principle of universal jurisdiction in Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the indictment, Sonko participated in the murder of Almamo Manneh in January 2000. Manneh was a former member of the elite guards of the Gambian presidency, State Guards, who was accused of being part of a coup.<\/p>\n

After murdering Manneh, Sonko allegedly raped Manneh\u2019s wife dozens of times\u2013 an abuse which persisted over five years. Jamba first narrated her story before the country\u2019s Truth Commission in October 2019.<\/p>\n

The Commission finalized its reports and submitted them to the Gambian president in November 2021. In 2022, the government published a white paper accepting the recommendations of the Commission. Sonko is named on the list of the 90 most adversely mentioned individuals published in July 2022.<\/p>\n

The Commission found Sonko to be involved in a scheme to cover up the killing of at least 51 West African migrants in the country in 2005. The migrants who hailed from at least four West African countries\u2014 Ghana, Nigeria, Senegal and Togo\u2014 were accused of being mercenaries and handed to members of Jammeh\u2019s hit squad to be shot at point blank, the Commission\u2019s investigation found.<\/p>\n

Sonko is accused of participating in the murder of a former ally of Yahya Jammeh, Mr Baba Jobe. Jobe was killed on his hospital bed at the country\u2019s main referral hospital in Banjul in October 2011. Sonko also faced allegations of participating in the torture of several civilian and military officers accused of plotting to overthrow Jammeh\u2019s regime in 2006.<\/p>\n

Sonko is also accused of participating in the torture of opposition political activists in April 2016. A rare protest broke in the Gambia led by political activists and members of the opposition UDP. The protesters, led by Ebrima Solo Sandeng, were rounded up and tortured. Sandeng would die in state custody. At least five \u2018victims of torture\u2019 in that incident have since died, and one of them\u2014 Nogoi Njie\u2014 was expected to testify against Sonko in Switzerland.<\/p>\n

Sonko is the second member of Jammeh\u2019s regime to face trial. In November, Bai L. a former member of a paramilitary unit known as \u201cJunglers\u201d created by the former President, was sentenced by a German court to life imprisonment for crimes against humanity. Michael Correa, another alleged member of the same death squad, will stand trial in Denver, USA, in September. He faces charges of torture and conspiracy to commit torture. A verdict in Sonko\u2019s trial is expected later in the year.<\/p>\n
