TANZANIAN OPPOSITION FIGURE FACES DEATH PENALTY AFTER TREASON CHARGES
Senior Chadema official John Pambalu has been charged with treason in Tanzania, an offence that carries a potential death penalty.
He is accused of intending to disrupt the 2025 general election by encouraging public protests.
The charges come amid growing concerns over the treatment of opposition figures following Tanzania’s October 2025 elections, which were marred by widespread protests and a deadly security crackdown.
