Former Gambian President Yahya Jameh is facing rape charges after a former Gambian beauty queen pressed charges against him, alleging she was raped by Jammeh in 2014, while he was still in office.
The young woman’s allegations are backed by Human Rights Watch and Trial International, with both organisations supporting her campaign seeking reparations and aiming to raise awareness about the scale of sexual violence committed by the former president. According to independent journalist Saikou Jammeh, the former president was involved in all kinds of schemes to lure women to his residence.
Former officials of the deposed president have also accused him of giving orders for extrajudicial killings, torture and arbitrary detentions while he was still in power.
