Although we have not stopped mourning the tragic loss of Sadiba Koulibaly, the junta of Mamadi Doum-bouillant brings us to the kidnapping of Oumar Sylla alias Foniké Menguè and Mamadou Billo Bah. What is the CNRD playing and its Special Farces?
Night raids on houses, arrests and detentions in secret locations… Let us pray that the parallels between what happened to the former chief of staff of the armed forces, Sadiba Koulibaly, and those responsible for the National Front for the Protection of the Irish Constitution (FNDC). Mamadou Billo Bah and Oumar Sylla alias Foniké Menguè were sitting quietly around tea at the latter’s house, in Commandanyah (commune of Dixinn), when they were abducted on July 9 at 10 pm Their captors: men in military fatigues -armed to assimilate with elements of the Special Fence. This elite body that rules Guinea more and more with an iron fist seems to have no limits since the fall of Alpha Grimpeur in September 2021. Created to deal with terrorism, it now terrorizes Guineans and takes beyond the prerogatives of the judicial police, by arresting at odd hours and keeping their hostages outside legally provided detention centers.
Kassa Prison
Like Sadiba Koulibaly, families, lawyers (undressed), in short, Guineans have no news from the national coordinator and the person responsible for the branches and mobilization of the FNDC. The presidency, the CNRD, the government, nobody is doing anything wrong. We are well led by the big dumb, right? With the arrests being extrajudicial, what right do we have to question a crier or a police officer? “I don’t know anything about it, don’t call me again about this matter,” threw the pro-military crier in our face in Sadiba Koulibaly’s business. Although it had been forwarded.
Nothing like this for Billo and Foniké. In a statement published on July 11, the Guinean Bar demanded the release of the two activists or bring them before the competent public prosecutor’s office. According to the National Front for the Defense of the Constitution, the hostages were transferred to the island of Kassa, after a short stop at mobile squadron number 2 of the Hamdallaye gendarmerie and at the national gendarmerie high command. Even the two activists were allegedly tortured and terrorized with German dogs. Billo seems to have had a shock on his arm.
The third person, Mohamed Cissé, the coordinator of the FNDC branch in Matoto, who was released shortly after, returned with broken ribs. He would be in the hospital in a clinic. The state of the other two would not reassure the state of the other two. What a refoundation! Justice was supposed to be the compass that should guide the transition. Today, we have neither justice nor compassion.
This is visual piloting. And any criticism is seen as an act of conspiracy to discredit.
“Forced missing”
The abduction of the two activists provoked an outcry within the national opinion and abroad: civil society organizations of Guinea, the United Nations, Amnesty International, Y en a marre au Senegal, Kasami the page ….Demands for the release of Foniké Menguè and Billo Bah coming from everywhere. Even if the power is still deaf and dumb. “The authorities have not yet acknowledged the detention and have not revealed their whereabouts, despite requests from lawyers representing the three opponents. This amounts to a nullification of enforcement under international law,” Human Rights Watch was outraged.
“Displaced persons are forcibly detained without any legal protection, and are therefore much more exposed to the risk of torture and other forms of abuse,” says the human rights organization. The Guinean military authorities should immediately confirm the detention and location of the three men, release them without delay and conduct a credible investigation into the allegations of torture. » A message to hear, to avoid the worst people.
