Beschreibung

From the former Director of Research and Investigations of the Gambia's Truth, Reconciliation and Reparations Commission (TRRC) comes a behind-the-scenes narrative of investigating twenty-two years of human rights violations in the quest for accountability and reconciliation. Through interactions, interviews and testimonies of witnesses and State representatives, the author provides a narrative that walks the reader through the initial stage of building the research and investigations unit and investigating a wide range of incidents, such as the murder and torture of children during the April 10-11 student protests, killing of West African migrants, witch hunt of mainly elderly people, the President's claim to "cure" incurable diseases such as AIDS, and enforced disappearances.

This book is illuminating for anyone interested in understanding how a dictatorship is birthed, nourished and sustained. It is a social commentary that is unforgiving in its assessment of the roles played by individuals and various institutions.
