Jailbreak: Ex-Guinea junta leader recaptured


Guinea’s ex-dictator, Moussa Dadis Camara, has been recaptured and returned to prison on Saturday.

He was recaptured hours after an apparent jailbreak led by a heavily armed commando, the army and his lawyer said.

At least two other former officials on trial alongside Camara over a 2009 massacre during his presidency were taken in the earlier operation that sparked heavy gunfire in the capital Conakry, a minister and lawyers said.

“Captain Moussa Dadis Camara has been found safe and sound and taken back to prison,” an army spokesperson told AFP, without specifying the circumstances of the capture.


One of Camara’s lawyers, Jocamey Haba, told AFP his client was back behind bars.

Justice Minister Alphonse Charles Wright said earlier that at around 0500 GMT “heavily armed men” burst into the prison and “managed to leave with four (prisoners)… notably Captain Moussa Dadis Camara”.

He said the borders had been closed.

It was unclear whether Camara had escaped of his free will.

The army described the operation as an attempt to “sabotage” government reforms and swore its “unwavering commitment” to the current military-led authorities.

A judicial source, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the masked and heavily armed soldiers who arrived at Conakry’s central prison declared they “had come to free” Camara.

Inside, the group headed towards his cell, appearing to already know its location, the source said.

Haba told AFP he believed his client had been “kidnapped” and his life was “in danger”.

“He has confidence in the justice of his country, which is why he would never try to escape,” he added, referring to the ongoing trial against Camara.

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”.

The men that got him out of jail we're not capable enough

What do you mean?

They did what they came to do.

It's obvious that they brought him out, some other group would have been tasked with hiding him and possibly another with getting him out of the country.

You must have read that they took four people, of whom two have been rearrested. I'm sure the four were split up and handed to different groups of spies/intelligence operatives, whis job is to hide them.

The security system is full of specialists. I'm not sure commandos hide people.

That's not their job.

Ok

You have said it all. This particular operation was not a fly-by-night operation; there were a lot of moving parts underground. It could be possible that someone in the breakout and escape team sold out to the regime.

Exactly, they were suppose to create atleast 3 diversions. Get him to point A, pick him up by a chopper, get to point B, drop him by a seaport. Point C, he lies low for a few days for intel.

Each it these points, create multiple diversions. They probably will be working with limited resources. Good for the books he was captured though!
