Tanzanian ex-ambassador Humphrey Polepole was abducted amid political tensions ahead of the October 29 election.
据报告,一名前坦桑尼亚大使和政府批评家Humphrey Poolpole在达累斯萨拉姆的家中被绑架,他的家人指控他强行闯入,在现场切断铁丝网和血迹,而事件录像则在网上传播。
A former Tanzanian ambassador and government critic, Humphrey Polepole, was reportedly abducted from his home in Dar es Salaam, with his family alleging forced entry, severed wires, and blood at the scene, while videos of the incident circulated online.
坦桑尼亚警方证实了一项调查, 虽然达累斯萨拉姆警察局长质疑绑架案是如何发生的, 因为波兰人声称在国外。
Tanzanian police confirmed an investigation, though the Dar es Salaam police chief questioned how the abduction occurred given Polepole’s claims of being abroad.
Poolpole 7月在批评政府损害司法和宪法原则后辞职, 其外交证书被吊销, 并面临警方对他在线指控的调查。
Polepole, who resigned in July after criticizing the government’s erosion of justice and constitutional principles, had his diplomatic credentials revoked and faces a police investigation into allegations he made online.
