location: Bangui - 3
notes: 23 October. PK 5 residents and others from the 3rd district demonstrated against a petition for the removal of Karim Mchassoua, the President of the National Assembly. Mechassoua, a Muslim, was seen as a balancing force against the Christian presidency. His dismissal is viewed by some as an attempt by President Touadera to concentrate his control and created a fall out in PK5 and among the CNDS ex-Seleka coalition.
