Guinea court finds former junta leader guilty in 2009 stadium massacre trial
A Guinea court sentenced former Junta Leader Moussa “Dadis” Camara to 20 years in prison for crimes against humanity related to the 2009 stadium massacre that killed at least 157 people.
Guinea’s Criminal Court also convicted seven other high-ranking officials of murder, kidnapping, and rape, reclassified as crimes against humanity, while four others were acquitted.
More than 100 survivors and victims’ relatives testified during the trial, which began in November 2022, after years of pressure for justice from families and activists.
