Pa Ousman Njie a taxi driver, was innocently caught up in protests in 2016 by opponents of former President Jammeh. Njie was arrested, tortured, and imprisoned for three months. His taxi was impounded at the National Intelligence Agency headquarters, where he was tortured. When he was finally released without charge, he found his taxi had been used during his detention by the NIA. It was returned to him in an unrepairable condition, wrecking his livelihood.
