The Authorities in Senegal have just suspended two private television stations for allegedly focusing on protesters, leading to the arrest of opposition leader Ousmane Sonko.
The closed channels include Sen Television and Walf Television.
The Senegalese authorities announced Thursday that they had suspended for 72 hours two private televisions, guilty according to them of having broadcast the images of the disturbances caused by the arrest of the main opponent in power, Ousmane Sonko.
