In Guinea, the mother and elder sister of Tibou Kamara, former minister and personal adviser to ex-President Alpha Condé, were abducted on Tuesday night by armed men.

The incident adds to growing concerns over a rise in reported disappearances across the country.

Human rights organisations have condemned the development, describing it as alarming amid the current climate.
