Conakry, Guinea – In a shocking turn of events, Guinea’s former strongman leader, Moussa “Dadis” Camara, has made a daring escape from prison.
The country’s Justice Minister, Charles Alphonse Wright, revealed the harrowing details on a local radio station, stating that a group of armed gunmen successfully stormed the central prison in Conakry in the early hours of Saturday.
This alarming development follows hours of intense gunfire in the Kaloum district of the capital, leaving the nation in a state of unrest and uncertainty.
Camara, who initially came to power through a 2008 coup d’etat, has been held in detention for his alleged involvement in a stadium massacre during his brief tenure as leader.
Minister Wright has declared that Guinea’s borders are now sealed, and the authorities are mobilizing all resources to track down and apprehend Camara.
Additionally, it has been reported that two other high-profile detainees, Claude Pivi and Blaise Goumou, have also managed to escape, adding to the growing crisis that has gripped the nation.
