Jabou, I have answered the simple question in my previous postings.I do not know the guy and I will never bring a person who I know is a criminal into The Gambia. This guy who is accused of child molesting in The netherlands is NOT my associate. I ONLY TAKE A GROUP TO THE GAMBIA All this happened in Holland,way after the Gambia trip.The Gambia is not a part of this .He is a part of a group of 20 people.I only know the group. I do not know of his involvement in these allegations.I am just like you. I read it in the papers and I am through with him. If I knew in hand he will not have the previledge to travel to the Gambia.
