The Khossanto gendarmerie brigade (Kédougou) arrested thirty-seven people (37) during the clashes that broke out on Monday in this commune and in the village of Mama Khono where several young people are protesting against the modification of the decree of the prefect of the department of Saraya on the recruitment of unskilled local labor, learned APS from the mayor of Khossanto Mahamady Sissoko.
"The gendarmes continue to arrest people at their homes. I asked everyone to go home, it's them. But the arrests continue. Which is not normal," said Mahamady Sissoko, mayor of the commune of Khossanto, who lost his own brother in the violent demonstrations noted on Monday in this locality.
