Military loyal to junta chief Capt. Amadou Sanogo return from the parachutists military camp, after taking control in fighting against anti-junta forces, in Bamako, Mali, Tuesday, May 1, 2012. Gunfire echoed across the capital Tuesday as Malian government troops battled each other, killing at least 12 people as one side tried to oust soldiers who seized power in a coup over a month ago. Mali's coup leaders, who ostensibly handed over power to an interim civilian government on April 12 but who still wield power, said they control the state broadcaster, the airport and a military base, fending off attacks by opposing forces. Sanogo told a private radio station Monday night that the countercoup had failed and that his soldiers have captured foreign fighters. The Guardian

Outside of Senegal, the 50-year-old chart-topping artist is best-known for his grooving mbalax beat. In his native country, he is also known for his scathing critique of the ruling party.
