The trial of former Guinean dictator, Moussa Camara, opens in Conakry, 13 years after the massacre that killed more 150 people at a political rally in the capital.
On Tuesday, the former dictator and another five defendants were sent to prison by the Appeal Court.
One of the lawyers, Salifou Béavogui, denounced the move.
Camara, who had been living in exile in Burkina Faso, returned to Conakry to stand trial.
