Purported Flight And TV Company Owner Arrested
By Fabakary B. Ceesay
Mr. Francis Awddai Antini, a Ghanaian national, who is said to have come to The Gambia to establish a television and an airline company was arrested by state security agents on July 16 and is still being detained at the serious crime unit at the police headquarters in Banjul.
When contacted, the police Spokesperson, Inspector Sulayman Secka, said Awddai Antini was arrested in connection with an advertisement on a purported airline company that was published by the Daily Observer on 12 July this year. Inspector Secka noted that the advert on the Observer was that the airline company was looking for flight attendants and air hostesses. The police spokesperson added that the name of the flight company was not known. He alleged that Mr. Antini had so far sold more than hundred copies (100) of application forms and had received hundred (D100) dalasis from each of the applicants who are about 100 in number. PRO Secka indicated that about forty (40) people made statements to the police concerning Mr. Antini.
The PRO indicated that investigations on the purported Television Company are still going on. He asserted that Mr. Antini has been charged with two counts. The first is obtaining money by false pretence with the pretext to employ the applicants in a company. Count two indicates that the suspect gave false information to the Daily Observer about vacancies for flight attendants and air hostesses, when such publication is false.

Is he not the same man said to have been arrested for being suspected to be investigating the infamous Ghanaian immigrants deaths by a Gambian online-paper outfit? The paper alledged that he was arrested by Gambia state agents for fear of being exposed. Wonders never end. |
