Description | The son of Guinea-Bissau's ex-president has been sentenced to over six years in prison by a US court for leading an international heroin trafficking ring.
Malam Bacai Sanha Jr, 52, planned to use the proceeds to fund his ambitions to become Guinea-Bissau's president through a coup, authorities say.
He is the son of Malam Bacai Sanha, who led the West African country from 2009 until his death in 2012. |
