PPA-CI demands full light on deaths of six detainees
Laurent Gbagbo's party says six militants have died in custody without trial and wants the State held responsible.
Ivorian newspapers on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, carried the PPA-CI's outrage over the death in detention of a sixth militant. Le Temps quoted the party saying "six human lives lost, it is too much!", while Le Quotidien d'Abidjan reported "cascading deaths" and a demand for "full light" on their causes.
La Voie originale said the six detainees died "in prison without trial" and that the party is calling on the State to answer for its responsibility. Dernière Heure listed the party's demands: the release of political detainees and a review of provisional detentions.
The packet reports that Le Quotidien d'Abidjan announced Charles Rodel Dosso before the judges on November 23, and that La Voie originale said the trial of Blaise Lasm was postponed to November 16 after three adjournments.
Why it mattersFamilies and supporters of the six dead militants now depend on the authorities opening an inquiry into how they died.
