 And now to stories in other parts of Africa. Hundreds have protested at Place de la Neuchon in Senegal's capital on Friday, making their demands heard for the release of several detainees who were arrested in March. Mass protests and riots erupted over rape allegations in March against opposition leader Ousmane Sanko. At least 13 were killed in the demonstrations. The movement for the defense of democracy, M2D, organized Friday's protest. Sanko, leader of the Pastef Party, told the crowd the state of grace is over.
