At least one person was shot dead and several wounded during violent anti-government protests in Guinea's capital on Thursday, an opposition coalition said.
The protest was spurred by concerns that Guinea's ruling junta, which took power in a coup last September, is not moving quickly enough to restore civilian rule.
"The FNDC deplores the death, this afternoon in Hamdallaye, of a citizen hit by a bullet, several injured by live ammunition and numerous arrests," said the National Front for the Defence of the Constitution (FNDC) in a statement late on Thursday.
