Trafficking of drugs through Guinea-Bissau increased after its military toppled the government last year, a local rights group said.
Movement of narcotics through the West African nation by South American gangs seeking to reach Europe and other parts of the world “increased significantly and has reached alarming proportions,” the Human Rights League of Guinea-Bissau said in a report published on its website today. “One cannot expect a happy ending to the crisis that has taken hold of the country since the coup.”
