SUSPECTED COUP PLOTTERS ARRESTED BY NIA

Two women and a man were arrested earlier this week in connection with an
alleged coup plot to unseat the APRC government.

Aji Fatou Mbenga of Kanifing, Sainabou Njie of Latrikunda Mampatokoto and
Biram Bah of Sare Pate in Sami were arrested by the National Intelligence
Agency to help investigations already mounted to uncover an alleged coup
plot in which the NIA director general was also allegedly implicated.

The NIA Public Relations Officer was not available for comment regarding the
alleged arrest and detentions of named civilians. However an NIA office who
declined to reveal his identity said the arrests were made in the interest
of national security and cannot be challenged by anyone.


Regards,
Alieu
