Guinea’s ex-dictator, Moussa Dadis Camara, has been rearrested and returned to prison on Saturday after a jailbreak.
According to AFP report, earlier Saturday, “heavily armed men” burst into Conakry’s central prison and “managed to leave with four (prisoners)… notably Captain Moussa Dadis Camara”, as reported by the country’s justice minister Charles Alphonse Wright.
The said incident led to the closure of Guinea’s borders, a move announced by Justice Minister Charles Alphonse Wright.
Following this, one of Camara’s Lawyer, Jocamey Haba, told AFP that his client was back behind bars.
Also, an army spokesperson told AFP, that “Captain Moussa Dadis Camara has been found safe and sound and taken back to prison.”
Wright also said Colonel Moussa Tiegboro Camara – another of the men taken from prison – had since been “recaptured”.
Tiegboro Camara’s lawyer said he had escaped from what he described as his “captors”.
