A Dutch national arrested at the end of March has pleaded guilty to insulting Gambia’s president Yahya Jammeh, news agency AFP reports.

Rene Beulen is alleged to have told police officers that the ‘Gambian president increased taxi fares for white people’ and that he was ‘too greedy and corrupt’, AFP said.
The judge, who is a close family member of the president, will hand down his judgment on Thursday, AFP says. Beulen faces up to one year in jail and a fine.
Jammeh has ruled the tiny state of Gambia since seizing power in a coup in 1994.
