Banjul — Eight opposition UDP supporters have reappeared in court in Kanifing on Monday 5th November. Dudu Kassa Jatta, Lamin Jawara and five juveniles are in court charged with various alleged offenses, including "threatening violence, prohibition of conduct and obstructing a police officer while in due execution of his duty."
Mr. Dudu Kassa is the elder brother of detained opposition Ward Councilor, Ousman Rambo Bojang.

The family is seen by many as the target of political prosecution orchestrated by leading supporters in Bakau.
