DISCLAIMER( THIS IS A PRIVATE E-MAIL)
Hello Annika,
My name is George Sarr and I am the webmaster at gambiansonline.com.
Recently we had covered the story of your husband's abduction by this
barbaric administration and your letter to the attorney general moved
a lot of concern citizens and has enlightened many of our visitors.
I ,peronally, have been following your husband's abduction with keen
interest and I must tell you,you doing a great job keeping us updated.
I was wondering if you could e-mail me a photo of Dumo so I can
put it on the site for those who cared to know him. Am also working
on having the final petition drafted by Kabir Njie/Alpha on the site. You
can snail mail it to my postal address if you don't have a scanned
photo. If you could, the sooner will be better.
My regular e-mail address is : [log in to unmask]

>Wednesday pm.
>On Monday I had an appointment with the Ambassador for the European

>Embassies in Dakar (especially the Swedish) when he goes there soon.
>However

>somehow - reached the courts.
>Another thing: yesterday one Mr Kanta Jawo came to the centre. He is taking
>care of the boka loho nursery school in Bunebore (Foni, not far from
>Kanilai).
>He told us that on the 16/7 he was picked up from his home in Bwiam by 7
>soldiers (state guard) from Kanilai. They asked him if he knows "Dumo" and
>when he looked confused they gave the name Modou Sarho. Aha, of course he
>is
>with Boka Loho and has come to our village with some students to help us
>erect the collapsed schoolbuilding. Anyway, handcuffed, he was taken to
>spend the night in Sibanor police station. The day after he was transferred
>to NIA HQ in Banjul where he spent two nights and answered questions about
>his dealings with Dumo and Boka Loho. After that he was allowed to sleep
>with some relatives outside (Fajikunda) but had to report daily to NIA for
>interrogation. He also said that he was never mistreated or harassed.
>Finally, yesterday, he was told that he didn't have to come back again and
>came to report the whole thing to Boka Loho. We reported the thing to
>Emanuel Joof and the newspapers. And this morning the EU-ambassador was
>also
>briefed about it.
>As I see it, it indicates that they have not up til now been able to find
>any evidence against Dumo and try everything to get something to justify
>their arrest.
>Emanuel Joof is now working with Ousman Silla and they have decided to take
>a joint approach. The next thing we are waiting for is an urgent hearing of
>the appeal.
>Still the treason charges have not been filed with the high court although
>the prosecutor was supposed to do that on the 17/7.
>The coalition for human right activists are planning to work on that.
>I think that that could also be a subject for pressure from other ends as
>well; such as media, local and international as well as individuals (maybe
>a
>fax campaign would do the trick).
>That's all for now,
>thanks for your support,
>Annika
