TL;DR Summary

Former dictator of Guinea, Moussa Dadis Camara, was recaptured and returned to prison after an apparent jailbreak led by a heavily armed commando. At least two other former officials on trial alongside Camara were also taken during the operation. It remains unclear whether Camara escaped willingly or was kidnapped. The army described the operation as an attempt to sabotage government reforms and reaffirmed its commitment to the current military-led authorities. Camara and his co-defendants are facing charges related to a 2009 massacre, and if convicted, they could face life in prison.
