the investigation into the assassination attempt by the colonel

The investigation continues after the assassination attempt on Tuesday against Colonel Assimi Goïta, the Malian transitional president. The attacker, who was arrested in the mosque with a knife, initially spent his time sleeping due to the psychoactive drugs consumed. But today the investigation is slow.

as reported from Bamako, Serge Daniel

A source close to the investigation claims that the attacker of President Assimi Goïta would have Malian nationality. Since Wednesday, he is no longer affected by psychoactive products that he had consumed before taking action. Has he been “shaken to sit down to eat” in the meantime? A source who has already been interviewed says no, but it will be necessary to get confirmation from independent sources.

The man who had the knife in his hand on Tabaski Day, inside the mosque, is quite young and obviously knows how to handle weapons, trusts a source familiar with the matter. He is not a teacher by profession, as some first announced.

An isolated act seems out of the question

Isolated document? At this stage of the investigation, it is not shown. In addition, it is confirmed that this is not a terrorist act either. According to an authorized source “this is a conspiracy and checks are underway to find out who is behind it”.

Pending further investigations, investigators are certain: the arrested man wanted to try Colonel Assimi Goïta, who was slightly injured, according to his entourage.
