French MP demands trial of Thomas Sankara assassins

French MP demands trial of Thomas Sankara assassins | African News Agency | Scoop.it

A member of the French parliament is urging his country to put pressure on Burkina Faso to bring to trial those believed to be linked to the 1987 assassination of President Thomas Sankara.

 

The demand is a follow-up of a letter from 12 Burkinabe MPs who two years ago requested the French National Assembly to open an inquiry into the assassination of the charismatic leader.

“It is time for France to heed the call,” said André Chassaigne, a left-wing French MP said this week.
