Five killed in Charlie Hebdo riots in Niger
Published: 10:14 am, Sunday, 18 January 2015
Five people have been killed in violent riots in Niger's capital over the depiction of the Prophet Mohammed on the cover of France's Charlie Hebdo weekly, with angry crowds setting fire to churches.
The protesters torched at least eight houses of worship in Niamey on Saturday. Bars, hotels and various businesses under non-Muslim ownership or bearing signs of French companies were also targeted.
It was the second day of violence in the west African country over the Mohammed cartoon, after five people were killed and 45 injured in protests in Niger's second city of Zinder on Friday.
By Saturday evening calm had returned to Niamey, where police were stationed outside the city's cathedral and other religious buildings, the AFP correspondent said.
'In Niamey, the tally is five dead, all civilians,' Niger's President Mahamadou Issoufou said in a speech broadcast on state television, appealing for calm.
