CONAKRY - At least one policeman and a protester were killed on Monday during demonstrations in Guinea against a possible change to the constitution that could let President Alpha Conde seek a third term, officials and residents said.
A doctor at a hospital in Conakry said one protester was shot dead in the capital. Residents in Mamou said a paramilitary policeman was beaten to death by protesters. Opposition leader Cellou Diallo, who came second behind Conde in 2010 and 2015 presidential elections, told reporters that four protesters had been shot dead in Conakry. He said at least 38 people had been wounded in Conakry and Mamou.
Several African leaders have tried to circumvent constitutional term limits in recent years, with mixed success.
