Barely few days after the sudden demise of former intelligence chief Pa Jallow, another top security chief died today. The death of prison Commissioner Rose Reilly, has been announced.

Mrs. Reilly passes away Monday March 31st 2008. The prison boss who recently promoted 400 prison officers to various ranks was today found lying dead at her home. Her body was later taken to the hospital for further medical procedures.

The circumstances surrounding her untimely death are unclear, but others believe that she might have died due to natural causes. The medical report on the actual cause of death is yet to be released to her family.

Many were wondering why a good woman should die in a short time of taking over the prison, when David Colley had fallen in the devil's trap and was removed in dubious circumstances. He was accused of stealing a generator from the prison, a charge he denied blatantly.

Aunty Rose as she is fondly called, died when many thanked her for promoting them to higher heights in the prison job. Others who have been disgruntled for her leaving them behind are not happy with those who got promotions. One of the newly promoted officers remarked "We know there is a game that has been played here since some were not promoted. They are disgruntled and have tampered with this woman secretly. But we shall not leave it lying down low."

A Police woman in a chat on the topic said, "I wonder what is happening to Jammeh's people, they keep dying in an unexplained circumstances. Pa Jallow died a few days ago and some soldiers died the same way and they were very close to the president. I wish I were close to the president, I would have let him know this fact. He needs to be more careful before he dies in the same circumstances."

During his curing of ailments recently where he added 6 more cures to the existing ones, some observers believe the President looks frail and sick. "He needs to be checked by medical doctors." Says Abou Falou Jeng.
