Meanwhile the Commission has clarified what it has spent in reparations up to now. And the budget that is still missing.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNotwithstanding the heavy schedule of work devoted to completing the draft report, the Commission informed the Attorney General on 27 July that it needed more time (about eight weeks) to complete all 16 volumes of the report and other important documents,\u201d Dr Lamin Sise told journalists in Banjul, Gambia\u2019s capital city, on Wednesday.&nbsp;The chairman of the country\u2019s Truth, Reconciliation and Reparations Commission (TRRC) announced a new date for the submission of its final report: 30 September 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between January 2019 and May 2021, the TRRC has received 2,600 statements and heard testimonies from 393 witnesses covering sixteen themes. Along with an activity report of the Commission\u2019s outreach engagements and a portrait album of the public hearings, the final report will comprise of sixteen volumes, each containing an overview, key findings, and recommendations on the various themes investigated by the Commission on human rights violations under the regime of Yahya Jammeh (1994-2017).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Emergency reparations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, the TRRC has released some information about its action on victims\u2019 reparations. Since it created a reparations fund, the TRRC has received US$1 million from the Government. This was part of monies recovered from sales of exiled Jammeh\u2019s assets, although no further details were disclosed. The government promised to pay another US$1 million but that did not materialise.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of this reparations fund has already been spent on emergency payments while public hearings were still ongoing.&nbsp;\u201cThe urgent interim reparations were needed for some people who were really sick and needed urgent medical attention,\u201d recalled Adelaide Sosseh, the deputy chair of the TRRC who presides over the reparations committee. That group of beneficiaries included torture victims, survivors of witch-hunting, those hit by Jammeh\u2019s passing convoys and those affected by Jammeh\u2019s hoax Aids treatment, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The budget for those interim reparations was US$391,006 of which the Commission has spent up to US$254,154. According to figures shared by the Commission with the Center for Victims of Human Rights Violations \u2013 an NGO that brings together victims of Jammeh\u2019s regime \u2013 US$215,053 were spent on patients sent to Turkey for treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A shortfall of 3,3 million dollars<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The interim reparations payments have left US$723,362 in the Commission\u2019s account which is now being paid to 1,000 victims who qualified under the Commission\u2019s policy. However, the TRRC full reparations assessment would require a pay-out of little over US$4 million, Sise and Sosseh said in a press conference on July 16.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This leaves a revenue shortfall of US$3.3 million,&nbsp;including US$625,610 to be paid to families of West African migrants killed in Gambia in 2005.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Commission\u2019s reparations policy, payments are measured based on the estimated gravity of the rights violations suffered by the victims. According to the Commission\u2019s list provided by Sosseh, 198 victims whose violations were deemed not very grave will be paid US$ 977 and below. Those victims will receive the money in one payment. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The victims or families of unlawful killing, enforced disappearance, torture, physical assault, unlawful detention, sexual and gender-based violence and inhumane and degrading treatment will receive payments of US$ 977 and above.&nbsp;These beneficiaries, numbering 758, would be paid on a pro rata basis and in instalments. For instance, families of those who were unlawfully killed should receive up to US$11,730.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The TRRC may spend the 1 million dollars it has received. But beyond this, the government would have to take over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Plans for a reparations act <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Justice Minister Dawda Jallow told Justice Info he is already working on an act of parliament that will establish an independent agency to take over the Commission\u2019s action and complete the reparations work. It is unclear how this agency will function but Jallow said the bill will be before lawmakers in the last quarter of this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI think the people need to have confidence in the process. If it is government-managed, we might probably run into complaints of bias or things of that kind,\u201d explained Jallow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gambia is currently preparing for its 2022 budget. Various state institutions are already holding their budget bilateral talks with the country's Finance Ministry. \u201cI have given instructions that the government needs to put aside substantial money towards\u201d reparations for Jammeh\u2019s victims, said Jallow.&nbsp;\u201cI am not too sure if the government can absorb everything that they [the TRRC] have recommended. We may seek help but we have to accept first that it is our responsibility: the alleged violators were state operatives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rising expectations vs shoestring budget\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Some tensions can already be felt though. About two weeks ago, Yusupha Mbaye \u2013 who was shot during the April 2000 student demonstration and was permanently handicapped as a result \u2013 returned $400 paid to him by the Commission as first instalment. According to the Commission\u2019s reparations policy, the category under which Mbaye falls should be paid US$2,000. When returning the money, the wheelchair-bound Mbaye sent a letter to the TRRC with a list of demands, including\u00a0having a\u00a0permanent nurse, continuous provision of urine bags, continuous provision of catheter bags, continuous access to physiotherapy services, provision of a permanent and monthly monetary allowance subjected to adjustment in line with prevailing economic circumstances.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mbaye has already received treatment in Turkey at the expense of the TRRC. In fact, Commissioner Sosseh revealed on a WhatsApp group that USD64,336 were spent on Mbaye\u2019s trip to Turkey. However, Mbaye said he is still in pain and unable to urinate normally.&nbsp;For rights activist Madi Jobarteh, the Mbaye case requires special attention. \u201cEven if you give a one-time payment of 1 million dalasi [about 20,000 US dollars] to Yusupha, it will not mean much in the long term,\u201d he said.&nbsp;\u201cFor me, people like Yusupha, who cannot do anything for themselves, should be provided a set of services just to enable them to live with dignity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far, the Victims Center \u2013 which is generally seen as a legitimate representative of the victims and has been consulted by the two successive Ministers of Justice under current president Adama Barrow \u2013 has not taken any definitive position on the case of Mbaye.&nbsp;The NGO board chair Sheriff Kijera gives a rather positive assessment of the reparations process up to now. \u201cI am not getting calls from victims complaining about the amount that they are being paid,\u201d he told Justice Info. \u201cWe have not heard any major problems being reported other than complaints from people that they have not received their reparations yet.\u201d But the whole program is still in its early stages and the NGO continues to monitor it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Doubt about the Government\u2019s commitment\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In December this year, Gambians head to polls to elect a new president. The deputy leader of the <em>Alliance<\/em>\u00a0for Patriotic Reorientation and Construction (<em>APRC<\/em>), former president Jammeh\u2019s party, Ousman Jatta, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kerr-fatou.com\/rambo-jatta-aprc-npp-alliance-is-almost-a-done-deal\/\">told local media<\/a> that they have nearly reached an agreement with Barrow\u2019s National People\u2019s Party. As a result, critics already doubt that both post-TRRC reparations and prosecutions will be taken seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Justice Minister Jallow assures the government's strong commitment to implementing the recommendations of the Commission.\u00a0But Jobarteh is more pessimistic. \u201cI have little hope that the Government will meet its obligations to survivors. Since the launch of the transitional justice program by the President himself in 2017, it is unfortunate that he has not shown the necessary political will and commitment,\u201d said the rights activist.\u00a0\u201cWhat this means is that civil society and the international community should become more vigilant to put pressure on the Government to fulfil its obligations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"articleLink articleLink--editorRecommanded articleLink--textInImage articleLink--textTop\" style=\"\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t<div class=\"articleLinkSurTitle\">Recommended reading<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t<a class=\"articleLinkImageLink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justiceinfo.net\/en\/40232-gambia-when-reparations-can-t-wait.html\"><div class=\"articleLinkImageContainer \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.justiceinfo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/4afd6ec28c89b5bc8f5148b5e892b8e1-540x360.jpg\" class=\"articleLinkImage backgroundImageTag w-100 wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/div><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.justiceinfo.net\/en\/40232-gambia-when-reparations-can-t-wait.html\" class=\"articleLinkTitle articleLinkTitle--default\">\r\n\t\t\tGambia: When reparations can\u2019t wait\r\n\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The final report of the Truth, Reconciliation and Reparations Commission, expected to be submitted today to the President of Gambia, has been postponed to September 30.
