Coup Attempt Leader Arrested in Guinea-Bissau

Excerpt:

The soldier who led a failed coup attempt last week in Guinea-Bissau was arrested, the spokesman for the armed forces said Sunday. Pansau Ntchama was arrested Saturday outside the capital, Bissau, said spokesman Dahaba Na Walna. He said that the country's ex-army chief of staff, Lt. Gen. Zamora Induta, was also behind the Oct. 21 coup attempt. Ntchama was a commando and Induta's bodyguard before the ex-army chief fled Guinea-Bissau in the wake of the last coup in April. Induta is now in Portugal, Walna said. Ntchama had sought exile in Portugal after allegedly carrying out the 2009 assassination of Guinea-Bissau's former president. "It was an attempt from the outside," said Walna. The government last week said that Ntchama had traveled from Portugal to Gambia, then to Angola to pick up arms and into Guinea-Bissau to carry out the attack.

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
