Mauritania: Retired General Faces Jail over Incitement

The judicial authorities in Mauritania sent the retired Major General Labath Ould Mieouf to jail on Wednesday evening pending investigation, following accusations against him that include incitement, harming the reputation of the state, and revealing military secrets. Ould Mieouf was arrested two weeks ago after a social media interview in which he called for toppling the ruling regime through uniting the opposition and various methods, while criticizing the national dialogue as being superficial. His actions sparked widespread controversy, especially given that he is a prominent former officer and the brother of one of the founders of the Mauritanian army. Under the law, he is prohibited from engaging in political activity or disclosing sensitive information since his recent decision. The decision to imprison him has led a opposition party to boycott the national dialogue, blaming the authorities for restricting freedoms and calling for his immediate release.
