Ivory Coast to Investiages Gbagbo

After months of intense violence between factions supporting sitting-president Gbagbo and internationally recognized election winner Alassane Ouattara, president Gbagbo was arrested in early April.  Mr. Ouattara announced this week that his administration, which has officially taken power, is beginning to open formal investigations against Mr. Gbagbo for crimes and abuses of power.

Some fighting still continues as forces loyal to President Ouattara mop up pockets of resistance formed by militias still loyal to Mr. Gbagbo.
