We told you yesterday, Thursday March 14, 2024, that a married woman, mother of 5 children, including a daughter, had her throat slit in the morning in Fellobantan, an area in the Petel district, in the urban commune of Mamou. According to Mariama Camara’s father, as it is her who is in question, her husband would be the author of the murder, and that he had disappeared after having committed the irreparable. All the same, according to our information, the flight of the accused, Boubacar Barry, only lasted a few hours. He was arrested around 5 p.m., in Dionfo, a sub-prefecture of Labé, while he was trying to make an Orange money withdrawal, just to be able to disappear, without answering for his actions. Questioned this Friday, the mayor of this jurisdiction located about ten km from the capital of Foutah-Djallon, returned to us on the circumstances of the arrest of the alleged assassin.
“Yesterday around 5 p.m., a young man named Boubacar Barry, who is accused of having killed a person in Mamou, before fleeing, came here to Dionfo aboard a public transport vehicle. He told the driver that he wanted to go to Tougué, but once there he was short of money. So he looked for where to make the Orange money withdrawal, he called someone who is in Mamou to give him money, it was the latter who denounced him, when he was speaking on the phone with the manager . He told the kiosk manager that the young man who was trying to make a withdrawal from you killed someone this morning in Mamou. Help us apprehend him, he must not go beyond there. As the gentleman lasted a bit on the phone, Boubacar suspected that he had been denounced. As soon as he got back on the phone, he said I have no more units, wait, I will contact someone to send me some units. He left the kiosk, as the manager understood that he wanted to flee, he called the secretary general of the commune who was nearby to inform him. The latter said to Boubacar, sir come, come, Boubacar said I’m coming minutes, directly he took off. The secretary general of the commune directly mobilized young people who ended up stopping him,” explains Elhadj Boubacar Kourako Baldé. Before adding: “when they sent it to the kiosk, they called me on the phone to explain the situation. So I came, we called the agents of the Mamou gendarmerie brigade, who came to pick him up. From Labé, he was transferred to Mamou, where he arrived around midnight. Well before, we asked him if he recognizes the facts, he said that they are accusations. We contacted his father who confirmed to us that he slit his wife’s throat…”
