Will truth and reconciliation deliver justice in The Gambia? Protests in Sudan

Will the Truth and Reconciliation in The Gambia deliver justice to victims of Yahya Jammeh's rule?

Also in the programme: Protesters in Sudan get ready to hold their first big rally calling for civilian rule since a violent attack on them by the security forces.

And President Trump is about to hold an unprecedented meeting with the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-un, in the demilitarised zone between the two Koreas.
