The anonymous group claims the support of 750 troops in the letter, which is titled "grievances in the Sierra Leone army: another war is possible".

The group said it was committed to checking "all forms of injustice and the excessive misrule that led to the bloody war in Sierra Leone."

Among a number of grievances listed was that nearly all the army officers recently sent to Uganda for training were from Defence Minister Paolo Conteh's Limba tribe.

Conteh and top military officials were to address a press conference on the issue later Monday, government spokesman Ibrahim Ben Kargbo said.

"All the allegations will be addressed seriously. Such letters are bound to frighten investors and it is the responsibility of the government to look at the issues raised and find solutions," he told reporters.

Sources said President Koroma, in Ethiopia for an African Union summit, had been informed of the letter.

Army spokesman Brigadier Yirra Koroma said the grievances were being investigated.

A copy of the letter was also circulated to diplomats and military trainers in the British-led International Military Assistance Training Team.
