notes: 16 people were kidnapped when a bus was seized near the CAR border at Babio by a heavily armed group believed to be made up of ex-Seleka rebels. Those kidnapped include four traditional leaders and the head of the Organization of Women of the Cameroon Peoples Democratic Movement (ORDPC). Some were later released, but reports conflicted over how many.
