Stadium massacre victims call for more protection

Hadja Asmaou Diallo, President of the Association of Parents, Victims and Friends of the 28th September stadium massacre in Guinea, has appealed to the Guinean government to provide protection for victims and to all witnesses who come to court to give evidence. In an interview with AVP reporter, Baillor Jalloh, Mrs Diallo said victims are "traumatised" and some are scared to give evidence for the fear of their safety. Her appeal comes as 11 top military officials including former junta leader Musa Dadis Camara, are currently facing trial for the alleged killings and raping of more than 150 people in the country’s national stadium during a political protest in 2007.
