BBC World Service - Weekend, The Gambia to prosecute ex-dictator for human rights abuses

The Gambian Government accepts the findings of the Truth Commission

The Gambian Government accepts the findings of the Truth Commission.

The Gambia prepares to prosecute its former dictatorial ruler, Yahya Jammeh.

Also, as he prepares to visit the scene of last week's mass shooting at a primary school in Texas, President Biden urges Americans to make their voices heard against gun violence.

Joining Paul Henley to discuss these and other issues are Verashni Pillay, a South African journalist and founder of the Explain news portal; and Phillips Payson O'Brien, an American historian and professor of strategic studies at the University of St Andrews in Scotland.
