Where is Tundu Lissu? CHADEMA raises alarm over missing opposition leader
Tanzanian opposition leader and former presidential candidate of CHADEMA party Tundu Lissu sits inside the Kisutu Resident Magistrate's Court in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania April 10, 2025.
Tanzania’s main opposition party said on Friday it could not establish the whereabouts of its leader Tundu Lissu after he was moved from a jail where he was being held following his arrest on treason charges last week.
Senior CHADEMA party officials, Lissu's lawyers and family members said they had tried unsuccessfully on different occasions on Friday to get access to him at a jail in the capital Dar es Salaam where he has been held since April 9.
