A British citizen on death row in Ethiopia, Andargachew ‘Andy’ Tsege has been freed.
He is currently at his family’s residence in the capital, Addis Ababa, where he is addressing a crowd.
Mr. Andargachew was seized nearly four years ago in Yemen and taken to Ethiopia.
The father of three was sentenced to death while in exile for plotting a coup, which he denied.
Mr. Andargachew had been Secretary-General of Ethiopia’s banned Ginbot 7 movement.
The government announced earlier that he will be freed as part of efforts to promote reconciliation.
