A teenager who was jailed in Guinea for exam cheating has died after complications from sickle cell disease, according to his father. The 17-year-old student, whose name has not been disclosed, was serving a six-month sentence for cheating on his baccalaureate exams in the capital city of Conakry. The father claims that his son’s health deteriorated rapidly while in prison due to a lack of proper medical care for his sickle cell anemia, a hereditary blood disorder.
The Ministry of Justice in Guinea has not yet commented on the teenager’s death. However, the father of the deceased student is calling for an investigation into the circumstances that led to his son’s passing while in custody. He believes that the lack of appropriate medical attention during his time in prison contributed to his untimely death.
Sickle cell anemia is a serious illness that requires regular monitoring and medical intervention. The young student’s case has raised concerns about the conditions of Guinean prisons and the treatment of inmates with pre-existing health conditions. The father is seeking justice for his son and is urging authorities to improve healthcare services for prisoners to prevent similar tragedies in the future.
