Senegal protests: Anger over election postponement
Protesters in Senegal opposing the postponement of presidential elections are fighting with police in the capital Dakar. The election which was due later this month was pushed to December. The opposition is accusing President Macky Sall of trying to stay in office despite reaching a two-term limit. The Justice Minister says the postponement is unconstitutional and was decided by parliament and not the president.
