Justice and Courts

Gambiaj.com – (COLORADO, United States) – This time, Michael Sang Correa argued his federal indictment for torture was filed beyond the statute of limitations; and for the third time this year, a U.S. federal judge has refused to dismiss multiple criminal charges against Michael Sang Correa, a former member of The Gambia’s notorious “Junglers” death squad under ex-dictator Yahya Jammeh. Correa, now living in Colorado, faces charges of torture committed in his home country, in a case that marks a rare use of U.S. law to prosecute international human rights abuses.
