冈比亚赔偿委员会已收到美国政府出售前领导人亚希亚·贾梅赫位于马里兰州豪宅的款项257万余美元1。这笔资金将用于赔偿贾梅赫统治时期的人权侵犯受害者1。美国于2022年获得该豪宅的没收销售权，理由是该财产系通过犯罪所得和挪用冈比亚公共资金获得1。
贾梅赫在1994年政变后统治冈比亚超过20年，期间发生了大规模人权侵犯、强制失踪和法外杀害事件1。调查发现，贾梅赫在冈比亚拥有281处房产、美国1处、摩洛哥1处，并控制超过100个银行账户，累计挪用公共资金超3亿美元1。2016年大选失败后，贾梅赫在西非军事威胁下于2017年同意下台，随后流亡赤道几内亚1。
The Gambian Reparations Commission has received $2,573,414.10 from the U.S. government following the sale of a Maryland mansion that formerly belonged to Yahya Jammeh, the country's authoritarian former president 1. The funds will be directed toward compensating victims of human rights violations committed during Jammeh's more than two-decade rule 1.
The United States obtained the authority to seize and sell the property in 2022, determining that the mansion had been purchased with proceeds from crime and the misappropriation of Gambian public funds 1. Investigations revealed that Jammeh had accumulated substantial ill-gotten wealth during his tenure, including ownership of 281 properties in Gambia, one in the United States, and another in Morocco, alongside control of over 100 bank accounts and the embezzlement of more than $300 million in public money 1.
Jammeh came to power through a military coup in 1994 and maintained control for more than twenty years, a period marked by widespread human rights abuses, forced disappearances, and extrajudicial killings 1. Following his electoral defeat in 2016, he eventually agreed to leave office in 2017 under military pressure from neighboring West African states and subsequently went into exile in Equatorial Guinea 1.
