The Military in Mali on Monday arrested the country's interim President and his Prime Minister in the latest mutiny after a mini cabinet reshuffle.
Reports said President Bah Ndaw, Prime Minister Moctar Ouane and Defense Minister Souleymane Doucoure were arrested and taken to Kati, a centre outside Bamako. It was, however, not clear under what circumstances they were held.
