Former Madagascar president Marc Ravalomanana said he had sustained a leg injury on Saturday.
Former Madagascar president Marc Ravalomanana said he had sustained a leg injury on Saturday when police and soldiers fired teargas to disperse a gathering of his supporters and those of other candidates challenging the incumbent president.
A Reuters witness at the scene in the centre of Madagascar’s capital Antananarivo confirmed police firing teargas at the supporters, who numbered in the hundreds. They also want Rajoelina to be disqualified from running on the grounds that he is not a Madagascan citizen, an accusation he has in the past dismissed.
