Burundi's Authorities Apprehend Coup Leaders in Bujumbura


Burundi's authorities say they have arrested three generals for their role in an attempted coup but the leader of the bid to overthrow President Pierre Nkurunziza is still on the run. After Thursday’s heavy fighting for control of the state radio headquarters and frequent gunfire in the capital, the streets of Bujumbura were quiet on Friday morning. Nkurunziza, who had been in Tanzania since the coup began is said to have returned to Burundi on Thursday signaling that the government had regained control of the capital.
