Niamey, 12 Aug-(ANA)-An opposition leader in Niger, Marou Amadou, has been abducted, hours after he was freed by a court on charges of breaching state security.
Mr Amadou's lawyer, Marc Le Bihan, said that men in uniform took him to an unknown destination.
He was arrested on Monday after calling for protests against a new constitution extending the president's term.
Meanwhile, the opposition coalition, the CFDR, has vowed to fight President Mamadou Tandja's rule.
The CFDR says it will restore the parliament, which the president dissolved in his attempt to hold onto power. (ANA)
