It\u2019s therefore the logical follow-up of this investigation in which several people were cited: some were arrested, others are on the run. It was towards the east side of Sabalibougou that the police raid took place.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cFollowing information, he was located in Sabalibougou, in a house under construction.

A team came inside. He was lying on the first floor and had his gun under the mattress. He was surprised and did not have time to retaliate. He climbed onto the roof and threw himself into the void. Our agents neutralized him \u201c<\/em>, says Aboubacar Traor\u00e9, head of the Research Brigade. On the spot, the police seized a semi-modern pistol loaded with nine cartridges. After a brief questioning, he cited Becaye Traor\u00e9, residing in Badalabougou Sema, as the owner of the weapon. The latter, questioned, denied the accusation that he would have profits on the crimes committed with the weapon. So, he cited the repairman, Nouhoum Konat\u00e9, who was buying and looking for dealers for the stolen motorcycles. The latter was also arrested. But the receiver of the stolen motorcycles, adds the Inspector who preferred to not mention his name for the needs of the investigation is still on the run.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4556\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4556\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4556 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/sahelien.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/05\/IMG_5818-1024x915-1024x915.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"572\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sahelien.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/05\/IMG_5818-1024x915.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/sahelien.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/05\/IMG_5818-1024x915-300x268.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/sahelien.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/05\/IMG_5818-1024x915-768x686.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/sahelien.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/05\/IMG_5818-1024x915-696x622.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/sahelien.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/05\/IMG_5818-1024x915-470x420.jpeg 470w, https:\/\/sahelien.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/05\/IMG_5818-1024x915-940x840.jpeg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4556\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sahelien.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>On the same Friday, May 12, two other offenders were arrested in Sabalibougou for illegal possession of weapons.
