Tentative d’assassinat à Bantaco : une femme échappe de justesse à la mort
A tragedy nearly claimed the life of a young woman in Bantaco, a town in the commune of Tomboronkoto, in the department of Kédougou. Married to a gold miner based in Laminya, she was seriously injured in the throat by her husband on the night of the tragedy.
According to local sources, the victim, aged around twenty, had come to Bantaco to seek refuge with her uncle after disagreements with her husband. The latter, unhappy with this decision, reportedly came to negotiate the return of his wife and their six-month-old child to the marital home. The family, uneasy with her attitude, preferred to keep the young woman in the village.
It was then that, taking advantage of his uncle's absence in the fields, the husband attempted to carry out his macabre plan. Armed with a knife, he violently attacked his wife, attempting to slit her throat. Her cries of distress alerted the neighborhood, preventing the worst from happening. Seriously injured but not in life-threatening condition, the victim initially received treatment at the Bantaco health center before being evacuated to the Kédougou Health Center.
The attacker fled after his attack. Mako gendarmes have opened an investigation and are actively searching for him to uncover the motives behind this assassination attempt.
