Lieutenant-Colonel Evrard Somda, a well-known figure in Burkina Faso, was abducted on Sunday, January 14, from his residence by unidentified gunmen. The gendarmerie’s former chief of staff was apprehended following a well-planned operation in which the attackers surrounded his home and sealed off the neighborhood.
The incident was revealed by those close to Lieutenant-Colonel Somda, and it has caused grave concerns about the security situation in Burkina Faso, a country that is struggling with political unrest and extremist violence. The facts surrounding this well-publicized kidnapping are still unknown, and it is still unclear who the kidnappers are and why they did it. As of yet, no extremist organization or other entity has taken ownership of the kidnapping.
