Succes Masra, former Prime Minister of Chad, was arrested for allegedly inciting protests that resulted in the deaths of at least 42 individuals in Logone Occidental. His political party claims he was 'kidnapped' by judicial authorities, while the public prosecutor has opened an investigation focusing on charges including incitement of hatred, revolt, complicity in murder, and desecration of graves. Masra's arrest is seen as part of a broader crackdown on dissent following a political crisis that has seen civil unrest against President Mahamat Idriss Deby Itno's extended rule.
"This alleged involvement incited the population against a community residing in the same locality. Messages were circulated, notably on social networks, calling on the population to arm themselves against other citizens."
"Masra's party said he was 'kidnapped' by the judicial police on Friday morning, expressing deep concern over this brutal action carried out outside any known judicial procedures."
