Le Togo confirme avoir extradé l'ex-putschiste Damiba vers le Burkina Faso
The Togolese government confirmed on Tuesday that it had extradited to Burkina Faso the country's former transitional president, ex-Lieutenant-Colonel Paul Henri Sandaogo Damiba, who was overthrown in 2022 and has since been accused of masterminding several coup attempts.
Mr. Damiba, who was in exile in Togo, was arrested on January 16 and "handed over to the authorities of Burkina Faso" the following day after a hearing at the Lomé Court of Appeal, the Minister of Justice said in a statement read on public television.
He specifies that Burkina Faso had made an extradition request on January 12, notably for "incitement to commit offenses and crimes".
