According to the statement, signed by the Secretary to the Commission, anyone who falls under any of the categories mentioned is required to submit a written request to the Commission.
The statement said all requests must be submitted before or on 15 June and if a request is not received with regard to any person by that date, the commission will assume that such person does not intend to present evidence or cross-examine in this inquiry.

Jammeh was summoned by the inquiry since early this year through a diplomatic channel while in exile in Equatorial Guinea.
