Africa ( Soldiers " Beat on dead man " and drag him through the street )
BANGUI, Central African Republic: The UN envoy to the Central African Republic called Thursday on the conflict-torn country to probe the public lynching of a suspected ex-rebel by soldiers and make an example of the culprits.
Babacar Gaye said the killing was “unacceptable” and “must be properly investigated and the culprits punished and made an example of.”
The soldiers lynched the man immediately after a military ceremony in the capital Bangui on Wednesday, beating and stabbing him before dragging his lifeless body through the streets, dismembering him and setting him on fire.
The gruesome attack happened mere moments after new interim president Catherine Samba Panza spoke of her pride in seeing the country’s armed forces contribute to national security again.
Gaye, the UN special envoy to CAR, condemned the atmosphere of impunity in the country that allowed “a man to be attacked in broad daylight.”
Asked about the inaction of African Union forces, who were present during the lynching but failed to intervene, Gaye said: “Just because they are authorized to act does not mean that they should immediately engage in an armed confrontation. Lethal force should be used with restraint.”
The lynching underscored the ongoing chaos in the country since the mainly Muslim Seleka rebel alliance seized power last March in the majority Christian country.
French and African troops have been struggling to quell the unrest since receiving the green light from the United Nations Security Council in early December.
The violence has displaced around a million people and is believed to have left thousands dead.

Battle Creek Mich ( Walmart employees said they saw missing " Teleka Patrick " ) Missing doctor
The 30-year-old doctor from Kalamazoo was last seen on December 5th, leaving the Borgess Medical Center parking lot.
Detective William Sparrow with the Kalamazoo County Sheriff’s Office said he’s “checking on it, and [will] see where it leads.”
According to Carlin, the Patrick family’s private investigator, an employee spotted a woman near the jewelry counter that resembled the missing woman on Saturday. Carlin said a second employee also thought the woman looked like Patrick. However, the woman’s coat had a different color lining than the one Patrick wore the night she disappeared.
Sparrow told FOX 17 the office is checking “anything we can,” including surveillance video from the store. He said just a few tips have come in since the January 22nd press conference regarding Patrick.

A dark-skinned Saudi female pilot has sued another Saudi woman for calling her slave on Twitter.
Nawal Al Hawsawi is one of the very few qualified pilots among Saudi women. A pilot’s license holder from the US Federal Aviation, Al Hawsawi said that an unnamed woman referred to her as “Abda” (which means slave) on her twitter page.
Besides the obvious defamation, Al Hawsawi said that she filed a case against the local woman as she wants to deal with the problem of racism that is prevalent in the kingdom, according to Akhbaar24 news. Experts expect the Saudi pilot to win the suit against the virtual antagonist.
