A week after the death of Mamoudou Barry, the emotion is still alive in Guinea. This young Guinean, 31, doctor and teacher at the University of Rouen, was fatally assaulted on 19 July in the evening at a bus stop in Canteleu, a town located in the north of France. A suspect was arrested. In Conakry, associations decided to mobilize by organizing a rally in front of the French Embassy.
" Justice for Mamoudou Barry! On the signs, the t-shirts and in the center of the banner, the youthful, smiling face of Mamoudou Barry, under a fine rain of July, surrounded by relatives like his younger brother, Abdoulaye Barry: " We put ourselves in the hands French authorities for justice to be done to him . "
The confreres lawyers are also present, as Alimatu Camara: " I have no particular link with Mamoudou Barry, I did not particularly know him. But today, I think that there are many people among us who are not particularly familiar with Mamoudou, but who feel touched by what happened to him . "
Former students of the University of Rouen also made the trip, like Mohamed Kouyaté, one of the organizers: " We are happy that our compatriots have given the true meaning to this event because the one who went away was a respectful and respectable person. So by saluting his memory in peace without any hassle, we firmly believe that we have succeeded. "
After a few steps on the Avenue du Commerce, the gathering dispersed in calm.
