Guineas expresident döms för brott mot mänskligheten

Captain Moussa Dadis Camara (French pronunciation: [musa dadis kamaʁa]; N'Ko: ߡߎߛߊ߫ ߘߊ߬ߘߌߛ ߞߡߊ߬ߙߊ߫ ߫; born 1 January 1964), now called Moïse Dadis Camara ([mɔiz dadis kamaʁa]), is an ex-officer of the Guinean army who served as the President of Guinea from 23 December 2008 to 15 January 2010. He was the leader of the National Council for Democracy and Development (French: Conseil National de la Démocratie et du Développement, CNDD), which seized power in a military coup d'état on 23 December 2008 shortly after the death of long-time president Lansana Conté. On 28 September 2009, protests occurred in the capital Conakry demanding that Camara step down. The security forces responded with force, and several dozen people died. On 3 December 2009, Camara was shot in the head during an assassination attempt and subsequently left the country to Morocco for medical treatment. Sékouba Konaté took over as acting president, with the United States and France expressing their desire to keep Camara out of the country. He was exiled in Burkina Faso, where he converted from Islam to Catholicism, changing his name from Moussa to the French form, Moïse, before returning to Guinea in 2021. He is currently in prison and on trial for his role in the crackdown on the 2009 protests.
