HTC News: Burkina Faso to exhume body of slain ex-leader Sankara
25.5.15
HTC News: "Tomorrow Monday at 8:00 am (0800 GMT), we will proceed to exhume the bodies of president Thomas Sankara and 12 others," mostly members of the military who died at the same time, the source told AFP.
Lawyer Benewende Stanislas Sankara, who is not related to the former head of state, told AFP the leader's relatives and their legal representatives have been "summoned by the investigative judge to attend the exhumation of the bodies".
The coup that killed Sankara put Blaise Compaore into power for 27 years, until a major popular uprising late last year led to his removal.
Sankara's remains are said to be buried in a cemetary of the Dagnoen district of Ouagadougou, but his family and supporters doubt that is true.
