Le jour went further in its report that in addition to these two arrests , many people continue to be questioned as the investigators carefully exploit the call list corresponding to the telephone contact of Bishop Bala.

It is therefore difficult to know whether or not they have highlighted elements that could justify the arrest of these two men.

However, it was noted that on May 31, 2017, when the bishop disappeared, it was said that a guard of the diocese was the last person to have seen the deceased. Is this the reason why the guard is been questioned?
