Hundreds of Gambians marched Saturday in the outskirts of the capital Banjul, demanding justice for sweeping rights abuses and murder they suffered under former dictator Yahya Jammeh's 22-year rule.
Jammeh ruled Gambia with an iron fist but fled in January 2017 after losing a presidential
election to relative unknown Adama Barrow which he refused to acknowledge before being forced out of power by a popular uprising.
Wearing T-shirts that read #justicemustprevail, the
protesters held photographs of people killed or who have gone missing, including AFP correspondent Deyda Hydara, who was gunned down on 16 December 2004 by Jammeh's henchmen.
