ST PAUL, MN – JULY 08: Members of the Oromo community march in protest after the death of musician and revolutionary Hachalu Hundessa on July 8, 2020 in St. Paul, Minnesota. The protesters called for Internet service to be restored in Ethiopia that was shut down on June 30. Community leaders also urged the U.S. to aid in the release of Oromian and American prisoners. This latest protest follows the death of Hundessa, who was murdered in Ethiopia on June 29.
Police in the East Shawa zone where Meki is located have arrested 13 suspects over the shooting, the Oromia Broadcasting Network said on Facebook late Thursday, adding that Bate had been buried at a ceremony in Meki that day.The 41-year-old Bate had been released on bail early last month following his arrest alongside French journalist Antoine Galindo in February.
The United States also called for a full investigation, the State Department’s Bureau of African Affairs said in a statement on X on Wednesday.“Justice and accountability are critical for breaking the cycle of violence,” it added. The largest and most populous region of Ethiopia, Oromia has been in the grip of an armed insurrection since 2018.
