Another private Gambian radio station, the popular Paradise FM, shut down late Sunday

   Another private Gambian radio station, the popular Paradise FM, was shut down late Sunday by authorities, media sources said, making it the fourth radio station to be ordered off air so far this month.

   Six plain clothes security agents arrived at Paradise FM slightly before 2300 GMT and told the station to stop broadcasting, the sources said.

  They claimed to be acting on orders from the ministry of information but did not provide any official documents or give a reason for the closure.
