Chad

The activists marched in peaceful protest against the newly emerged Transitional Military Council -- a regime strongly supported by France.
The former coloniser has been strongly warned by the country’s opposition parties to not meddle in Chadian affairs.

To thwart demonstrations, the police also made arrests -- although it is not yet clear how people have been detained.
