A group of six armed and hooded men allegedly invaded the home of Soares Sambú, a senior member of the Movement for Alternating Democracy (MADEM-G15) party, in Bissau early on Monday, November 9, 2026.
The intruders reportedly overpowered Sambú's security guards before entering the residence, where they remained for over an hour, causing panic among his family members. The MADEM-G15 party described the incident as a serious violation of domicile and an attack on Sambú's personal safety.
The party has urgently appealed to judicial authorities to identify the perpetrators and those who may have ordered the attack, to determine the motives, and to hold those responsible accountable.
