Guinea-Bissau military court orders opposition leader back to jail

By GhanaSummary Newsroom

Guinea-Bissau opposition leader and former Prime Minister Domingos Simoes Pereira was moved back to ​prison last Friday following a decision by ‌the West African country's military court, his family told Reuters.

The junta that seized power in Guinea-Bissau in a coup ​last year released Pereira, the leader of ​the revolutionary PAIGC party, in February in an ⁠apparent attempt to appease the West African regional ​bloc ECOWAS.
