Ivory Coast: aid workers find 1,000 bodies in Duekoue

Ivory Coast: aid workers find 1,000 bodies in Duekoue

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/foo...n-Duekoue.html

Any place other than Africa and this would be big news....

"........Charity workers who reached Duekoue said it appeared the killings had taken place in a single day, shortly after the town fell to troops loyal to Alassane Ouattara, the man internationally-recognised as having won last year’s presidential election.

The apparent massacre came despite the presence of United Nations troops and - if confirmed - will cast a shadow over Mr Outtara’s assumption of the Ivory Coast’s presidency after a four-month battle to oust Lawrence Gbagbo, the former president who lost the November election but refused to step down. ............"

And REing the Logan thread I'm sure there are male and female reporters in the area getting the story - it's what they do.
