He is currently on hold. Is this custody that has already started? He has not been notified about anything according to law. He is present and, unfortunately, he [spent] his first night at the gendarmerie illegally,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Mamady Doubouya, a junta that overthrew Alpha Omar, was elected as the leader of the new junta.<\/p>\n<p>The junta has been at odds with ECOWAS, a regional body that has demanded a roadmap for a return to a constitutional order. Last week, the regional organisation announced a series progressively applied sanctions against the military group in charge of the West African country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose who incite this group of soldiers to become radicalized, to enter into a configuration of arm wrestling with both national actors and the international community, are not doing the junta any good.
