A journalist detained by security forces a year ago in the Gambia has been spotted in the country's main hospital in Banjul where he is thought to have received treatment for high blood pressure. Chief Ebrima Manneh, a journalist with the Daily Observer, was said to be very weak. He was accompanied by members of a para-military wing of the police force. Since Manneh was arrested last July, supposedly for passing information to a foreign journalist, Gambia's security agencies have repeatedly denied any knowledge of his whereabouts. (Via IFEX)
