    Sierra Leone VP Samuel Sam-Sumana 'goes into hiding'

    Mr Sam-Sumana was expelled from the ruling All People's Congress Party (APC) last week on allegations of "orchestrating political violence" and trying to struktur a new party in his home district of Kono.

    He was also accused of falsifying academic credentials. He denied the allegations - calling them "baseless fabrications and lies" - and rejected calls for his resignation.

    Under Sierra Leone's constitution he cannot be sacked, but he could be removed through a parliamentary impeachment.

    Speaking to the BBC, APC Secretary General Osman Yansaneh refused to rule out impeachment proceedings against Mr Sam-Sumana.

    Relations between Mr Sam-Sumana and President Ernest Bai Koroma have long been frosty, our correspondent reports.

    Mr Sam-Sumana, 53, has been vice-president since 2007, when he first stood as Mr Koroma's running mate. President Koroma is now serving his second and final term.
