Tanzania authorities detained US citizen Thadey Sabinus Kweka in Moshi on allegations of publishing false information following the contested election. A court ordered him to surrender passwords to his phone for investigation. Legal experts criticized the hearing as one-sided and said it violated his right to a fair trial.
