Madagascar mob kills two Europeans over child murder

The murder occurred after days of tension. Residents marched on the
paramilitary police station Wednesday, convinced the boy’s killer was being
held there.

Security forces say they fired shots in the air to disperse the crowd, but at
least one person died and two others were wounded.

The mob also torched eight houses.

“They suspected the two foreigners of being behind the murder and trafficking
human organs,” said the gendarmerie’s Randriamaro.

The two men “confessed under torture to having trafficked organs”, he added.

A witness told local media the rioters only targeted the two men suspected of
having ordered the boy’s kidnapping, but left other foreigners alone.

The French consulate discouraged its nationals from visiting Nosy Be island
“until order is restored, especially on the beaches.”
