Cyrille Rasambozafy’s request stunned the audience in reaction to the arrest of one of his supporters in the run of the demonstration held in the capital city’s streets on June, 2nd. Congressman Razafindrakotoasimbola was arrested on that very day for having taken part and contributed to the demonstration organized by the FREE FM radio station on the Place of May 13th. The armed and police forces loyal to the High Authority of Transition argue that he would have shared money out to demonstrators. The court did not extend the case further more.
Cyrille Rasambozafy’s request actually stands very few chances to be heard. However, it does clearly reflect the growing tension inside the Malagasy ruling political class. Many more voice are not only longing for the government to step down, but also for the transitional leader to be kicked out, as a matter of fact.
