In Guinea, the high-profile corruption trial involving former public officials and commercial institutions has been postponed for a second time.

The Economic and Financial Offenses Court (CRIEF) announced the decision on Wednesday, June 18, following a request from defense lawyers who cited the absence of several defendants, including Alpha Mohamed Kallo.

The case, which centers on alleged financial misconduct involving state funds, was originally expected to mark a turning point in Guinea’s anti-corruption drive.

The trial is now scheduled to resume on July 26, 2025, as public anticipation remains high for accountability and justice.
