Description
The collective of lawyers of the civil parties in the Thomas Sankara case hold a press conference during which they demanded the execution of the arrest warrant issued against Blaise Compaoré. The Collective is indignant at what it describes as a "defiance of justice" and calls on the judicial and political authorities to assume their responsibilities. At the invitation of the President of Faso, Paul Henri Sandaogo Damiba, former President Blaise Compaoré is taking part in a meeting of former Heads of State of Burkina Faso, even though he has been sentenced to life imprisonment for his role in the assasination Thomas Sankara.
