FREETOWN (Reuters) - Sierra Leone's anti-corruption commission has indicted six officials on corruption allegations, including an opposition front-runner for the 2023 presidential election.

Samura Kamara was the presidential candidate for the now opposition All People's Congress (APC) party in the 2018 election, and is their presumed candidate for the 2023 polls.
