Tanzanian opposition leader Tundu Lissu has been jailed in a case widely condemned as politically motivated.
Tanzanian opposition leader Tundu Lissu has been sentenced to four years in prison after being cleared of treason. Lissu condemned his conviction for incitement, which had not been among the charges he faced.
The 58-year-old, who has been detained since April last year, says the charges are politically motivated.
