Ahmadiyya in Guinea-Bissau

Only six years later, on August 20, 2001, the then-president of Guinea-Bissau, Kumba Ialá, ordered the closure of Ahmadi mosques and mission houses and called for the expulsion of Ahmadi Muslim missionaries of foreign Pakistani origin to leave the country within a period of "48 hours".

In response to the decision, Sory Djalo resigned from his post as the president's religious affairs advisor.

The court found that the decision made by the president violated the nation's constitution, which guarantees religious freedom and prohibits dissolution of religious groups without a prior court approval.

[2][3][4][5] In January 2005, the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community was permitted to resume its religious activity, only to be banned once again two months later, in March.

A year later, in 2006, the Community appealed the government's decision to ban its religious activity again.
