On Tuesday, another Balai citoyen activist, Rasmane Zinaba, was also kidnapped "at his home" by " unidentified " "armed and civilian people" , before being taken to "a location previously unknown".
Rasmane Zinaba had been requisitioned by the Burkinabe military regime to fight with the army against the jihadist violence that is undermining the country. Mr. Zinaba had taken legal action to have this requisition cancelled. Several cases of abductions of voices considered hostile to the military regime in power since a coup d'état in September 2022, led by Captain Ibrahim Traoré, have been reported in recent months in Ouagadougou.
