Tanzanian opposition figure Tundu Lissu, who was shot and critically injured at his home last month, is now out of intensive care, his party Chadema said Tuesday.

Lissu, who was attacked on September 7, left the unit at a hospital in Nairobi last week, after having undergone 17 operations, Chadema chief Freeman Mbowe told media in Dar es Salaam.
