Senegal sports journalists beaten

Two sports journalists - Kara Thioune of West Africa Democracy Radio (WADR) and Babacar Kambel Diang, who works for the private radio station RFM - were taken to hospital after being beaten by Senegalese police. The reporters were at a Dakar stadium for a press briefing, and the reason for the assault is unclear. (Via Media Foundation for West Africa)
