Senegal in turmoil after student protest over financial aid | DW News

From DW News.

Senegal is grappling with unrest after a wave of protest by students over unpaid financial aid. The situation worsened last week after a student died during the chaos in the capital Dakar. Prosecutors say Abdoulaye Ba fell from a dormitory as police clashed with students, but classmates insist officers beat him to death. The government has admitted there was "police misconduct." And anger is growing among the youth, as our correspondent Sira Thierij reports from Dakar.
