Le pr\u00e9sident togolais Faure Gnassingb\u00e9 subit une pression croissante suite \u00e0 la r\u00e9pression gouvernementale des manifestations r\u00e9clamant sa d\u00e9mission suite aux r\u00e9centes modifications de la Constitution qui pourraient le maintenir au pouvoir ind\u00e9finiment.<\/p>\n
Mardi, des militants ont condamn\u00e9 l’arrestation et les mauvais traitements pr\u00e9sum\u00e9s de dizaines de personnes suite aux manifestations organis\u00e9es en fin de semaine derni\u00e8re \u00e0 Lom\u00e9, la capitale du Togo, et sur les r\u00e9seaux sociaux.<\/p>\n
Le dirigeant togolais, au pouvoir depuis 2005 apr\u00e8s la mort de son p\u00e8re, a pr\u00eat\u00e9 serment en tant que pr\u00e9sident du Conseil des ministres en mai. Ce mandat ind\u00e9termin\u00e9 est illimit\u00e9 et il est r\u00e9\u00e9ligible ind\u00e9finiment par le Parlement.<\/p>\n
L’opposition a d\u00e9nonc\u00e9 cette d\u00e9cision comme un \u00ab coup d’\u00c9tat constitutionnel \u00bb.<\/p>\n
Pr\u00e8s de la moiti\u00e9 des 80 manifestants arr\u00eat\u00e9s ont \u00e9t\u00e9 lib\u00e9r\u00e9s lundi soir. Cependant, au moins 25 personnes sont toujours d\u00e9tenues, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 une organisation locale de d\u00e9fense des droits humains, exhortant les autorit\u00e9s \u00e0 lib\u00e9rer les autres.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Ce que nous savons, c’est que plusieurs personnes ont \u00e9t\u00e9 battues lors de leur arrestation \u00bb, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 \u00e0 l’Associated Press Aim\u00e9 Adi, directeur du bureau d’Amnesty International au Togo.<\/p>\n
Outre la lib\u00e9ration des d\u00e9tenus restants, \u00ab ce que les Togolais souhaitent d\u00e9sormais, c’est la fin de ce r\u00e9gime, qui ne peut plus rien offrir au peuple apr\u00e8s 20 ans de pouvoir absolu et r\u00e9pressif de Faure Gnassingb\u00e9 \u00bb, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 une coalition de formations politiques connue sous le nom de \u00ab Touche pas \u00e0 ma Constitution \u00bb.<\/p>\n
Les manifestations sont rares au Togo, car elles sont interdites dans le pays depuis 2022, suite \u00e0 une attaque meurtri\u00e8re sur le principal march\u00e9 de Lom\u00e9. Mais le dernier changement de structure gouvernementale a \u00e9t\u00e9 largement critiqu\u00e9 dans une r\u00e9gion menac\u00e9e par des coups d’\u00c9tat end\u00e9miques et d’autres menaces \u00e0 la d\u00e9mocratie.<\/p>\n
Le procureur Talaka Mawama a d\u00e9fendu les arrestations et a d\u00e9crit les manifestations comme \u00ab une partie d’une r\u00e9volte contre les institutions de la R\u00e9publique \u00bb.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
