30th of August marks the International Day of the Victims of Enforced Disappearances. This day is a moment to remember those who were taken and have not returned, and to stand with families who continue to seek truth, justice and closure. In The Gambia's transitional justice context, enforced disappearance is one of the most painful legacies of the past regime documented by the @TRRC_Gambia
