The Gambia on Tuesday (Dec. 27) established an “investigative panel” following the arrest of alleged coup plotters.
The panel will have 30 days to report back on last week’s coup attempt.
The 11-member inquiry group was sworn in and includes members from the justice ministry, the office of national security, military forces, the police, and intelligence agencies.
A captain and lieutenant are among military men who’ve been arrested.
According to an official statement, they’re “helping unearth allegations of plans to overthrow” President Adama Barrow’s government.
