That while making efforts to convince the Senegalese police of the perishable nature of his merchandise, he found that the defendant's police were allowing the passage of persons and goods from selected countries. A Mercedes branded truck with registration number RGB 4269 CF, Guine-Bissau was authorized to cross border by the defendant. - The applicant waited at that frontier for days, and the days became weeks and months (63 days), believing that the border closure was temporary, until May 20, 2016, when he decided to turn around and return to The Gambia, having waited in vain.
