The co-proprietor and managing editor of The Point newspaper, Pap Saine has quickly and unreservedly condemned certain UK/US based websites for their totally inaccurate and irresponsible comments about the National Intelligence Agency (NIA).

Pap Saine completely refuted the malacious and false reports which stated that the NIA recently visited and questioned The Point staff. 'These reports are baseless and unfounded' stated Pap Saine. A seasoned and much experienced journalist, Pap added 'journalists should always double-check their facts instead of being in a haste to report on issues without speaking to concerned people'. Pap concluded 'The report was not base on fact'.
