Guinean soldiers accused of human rights abuses
Guinea's new military junta must rein in soldiers who have carried out armed robbery, extortion and rape since the new government took power in a December coup, Human Rights Watch said in a report on Monday.
According to witnesses quoted in the report, heavily-armed soldiers haved raided offices, shops, clinics and homes in broad daylight. At night they have stolen cars, computers, cash and jewelry -- and threatened judges to try to influence rulings. (Reuters)
