The Guinee libre [fr] website reports that violent confrontations occurred over the week-end in Conakry as the second round of the presidential elections approaches (scheduled for September 19th but  probably temporarily suspended).  The violence opposed militants of the  Rassemblement pour le peuple de Guinée (RPG) and the militants of the Union des forces démocratiques de Guinée  (UFDG) [fr].
