The Gambia Armed Forces announced yesterday that Brigadier General Bora Colley has died. He served as an important officer during former President Jammeh's time in power. Many people accused him of taking part in terrible acts back then.

According to the military statement, Colley came back to The Gambia on August 9, 2024. He had stayed away for eight years by his choice. His health problems became very bad, which pushed him to return home. The authorities put him under arrest right after he arrived because of his sudden departure years ago.

The Truth, Reconciliation, and Reparations Commission had suggested he face charges. They believed he killed and hurt victims at different places across The Gambia. Doctors checked him when he entered custody. They found he needed constant medical care, which the government provided. Despite these efforts, he passed away on March 9, 2025.

The Attorney General has asked the Chief Justice to start a special investigation. This follows rules from the Coroner's Act for people who die during custody. They want to find out exactly why he died. The military sent sympathy messages to his family. The government plans to keep looking into all cases from the TRRC report and bring those responsible to justice.
