Ex-General Colley was arrested on Friday 9 August 2024 around midnight when he voluntarily surrendered himself to the GAF Military Police in Yundum Barracks.
It might interest the public to know that surveillance was mounted by GAF intelligence operatives, acting on information, around his residence within the Greater Banjul Area the same day. Meanwhile, the senior officer is currently detained and cooperating with the Military Police in their investigations.
Further information on how the ex-General entered the country and how long he has been in The Gambia, among other issues, will be shared with the public in due course.
