General Brice Oligui Nguema meets Central African Republic's President Faustin Archange Touadera, appointed by Economic Community of Central African States as 'facilitator of the political process'.
Oligui, head of the elite Republican Guard, was sworn in on Monday as interim president.
Among those freed, he said, was one of his clients, Jean Remy Yama, a 59-year-old teacher and trade unionist, who had been held since June 2022 on charges of embezzling public funds — an accusation that the opposition said was bogus. The meeting marks a further step by Oligui to forge contacts with key figures after Wednesday's dramatic events.
