Many years after independence had been secured and PAIGC had taken power he was arrested and imprisoned for eight months in 2010 by rebel forces during the 2010 Guinea-Bissau military uprising against the PAIGC regime. He was arrested again in 2012 following the 2012 Guinea-Bissau coup d'état and accused of terrorism against the Guinean state. He was obliged to spend the next few years in exile in Lisbon, not returning to Guinea-Bissau until July 2015. See also
