Domingos Simoes Pereira, leader of the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde, was detained when the army overthrew President Umaro Sissoco Embalo last year.
A Guinea Bissau military court ordered opposition leader Domingos Simoes Pereira to be kept under house arrest after he was questioned again over accusations of plotting a coup against the military government, his lawyer said.
Pereira, leader of the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde (PAIGC), was detained when the army overthrew President Umaro Sissoco Embalo on November 26 last year.
He was released under house arrest in January but has been accused of involvement in at least two attempted coups, one in 2023 and one in October 2025.
Heavy security surrounded the court where Pereira appeared on Thursday.
