A key Senegalese rebel leader, César Atoute Badiate, has broken his silence on jailed journalist René Capain Bassène, refuting the prosecution’s claim that Bassène was a militant fighting for independence of the Casamance region who incited him to murder 14 illegal loggers in 2018.
“René Capain Bassène is neither an MFDC representative nor a leader to give me orders [to kill],” said Badiate, who heads one of the main factions of the separatist Movement of Democratic Forces of Casamance
