the grenade used in the attempt does stem from army supply. The investigation of this case is running by now. According to reliable sources, the state police did try to retrieve the pieces of the used grenade, causing a general indignation from the police forces which first investigated the crime scene. This was the fifth attempt of that kind within two months in Antananarivo. Four harmless explosive devices went off in different areas, but not any of them were taken seriously by a population suspecting political manipulation related to the pending elections. For a change, at least a relevant figure became the target this time around.
One grenade has exploded not so far from the home of François Rakotozafy, the Special Electoral Court`S president, in Antananarivo in the 67Ha district. Neither victims nor damages have been recorded. The national state police dept and the police forces shortly argued about who would be entitled to lead the investigation of this "attempt". The police forces finally got the upper hand.
