Makeshift exploding devices are recovering the front stage. The armoured vehicle with the dictatorial leader on board is being targeted by a bomb attempt. The damages are irrelevant, but deemed to be turned into a political milestone. The explosive charges were enough to damage the car´s paint. The attempt is being claimed by the HAT, its supporters and no one else, so whom is it supposed to favour ?

The movie of the week: an attempt against the painting of the HAT presidential car`s paint

 

 
The makeshift explosive device which targeted the HAT´s leader was miles away

from being able to cause damages and casualties. Various testimonies are

supporting this assertion. The blast was similar to that of bursting tire. Then,

the blow lifted the particularly heavily armoured presidential car. The deviced

was hidden near the crash barrier and damaged… a rock…when having been

activated by remote control, as the convoy reached the bumper. 
 
The production seems perfect. The bomb exploded and reached its goal: recovering

the top headlines. The investigation scene was epic. The proofs and clues were

obviously playing no role in pointing at responsibles. The Prime minister’s

acting performance generated smiles in the audience in spite of the seriousness

of the situation. Could a crime scene ever be so messed up, and clues with bare

hands manipulated? 
 
Camille Vital produced expert assessments in order to make believe that the

exploding power would have been devastating. He certainly watched these

blockbusters in which heroes are hesitating between the blue and the red thread.

The so said expert assessment was later on denied by an investigator who wasn´t

part of the casting. The general Vital got however all of the attention he

wanted when he blamed the HAT´s security service for lacking caution when

failing from securing the road. 
 
The case has claimed its first victim: the officer in charge of security.

Colonel Claude Razafimahatratra has been dismissed. The HAT appointed a certain

colonel Julien Ravelonjanahary, a specialist of struggle against terrorism,

flashy isn´t it? officer trained by the French GIGN and leading the Malagasy

GSIS, its counterpart. The minister in charge of Home Security subsequently

recalled the relevance of having armed policemen stationed on roads used by

Rajoelina Andry. 
 
The movie of the presumed attempt of the Masay Swamp is merely an advocacy for

the dictating leadership´s legitimacy, a way to manipulate masses, and blame the

opposition. The event poped up when the Rajoelina sphere was summoning the SADC

led mediation to enforce the signature of the first draft deemed to make Andry

Rajoelina the world´s most powerful president ever, and when Albert Zafy

solemnly announced the incomming creation of a genuine transition as Rajoelina´s

stolen mandate is coming to an end. The alleged assassination attempt, actually

poorly proved by facts, is in the end more a political device than anything

else.
