We learned on the evening of Tuesday, December 3, 2024, of the arrest of journalist Habib Marouane Camara. The alert was first given by his wife through a publication on the social network Facebook. “My husband was arrested,” she wrote.
Subsequently, we tried to contact the contact of journalist Habib Marouane. On the phone, a young person who answers indicates that he is in possession of the cell phone of the journalist who had just been taken out of his vehicle by gendarmerie agents at the KPC crossroads in Lambandji.
“It is in the hands of the police. I picked up his phone from his vehicle so I could make calls to his family. They broke the driver's side window, took him out of the car and then put him in another vehicle and took him away. By the time we got to them, the guys had moved. So, we looked in his vehicle, I saw his phone, I took it. It was just one pickup,” says this witness.
Questioned by our editorial team, the lawyer was not yet informed of the situation.
For now, journalist Habib Marouane Camara is being taken to an unknown destination.
