The horrific murder of Aminata Sy: The love story behind Karamo Cissé Ndiaye’s fury

Karamo Cissé Ndiaye, a 35-year-old trader, was arrested at a Quranic school in Ndiapandal Bou Ndaw, in the commune of Kaël, after fleeing and switching off his phone. He is charged with the murder of Aminata Sy, a high-school student from Podor who was described as his girlfriend. According to his account, their relationship began online in 2021, and plans to marry were postponed after she failed her baccalaureate exam. He claims a dispute over 300,000 CFA francs paid toward the dowry preceded the killing, but investigators’ findings contradict his account.

Gold from eastern DRC is an increasingly important source of ADF funding, says The Sentry

According to an investigation published on October 27 by The Sentry, illicit gold mining and trafficking in eastern DRC are increasing the financial autonomy of the Islamic State-linked ADF. Gold transported to Uganda has reportedly become the group’s main source of funding; the ADF also earn money from cocoa production, extortion and kidnappings. In Manguredjipa, North Kivu, mines controlled by the group are estimated to generate between $1 million and $1.6 million annually. The Sentry calls for investigations into gold supply routes, compliance with military agreements between Uganda and Kinshasa, and efforts to confront both the ADF and the M23.
