The Malian government said Thursday it was offering financial rewards for information on the whereabouts of suspected militants wanted for their role in attacks targeting the nation's people and assets.
- The offer follows al Qaeda-linked attacks in April that killed the defence minister and wounded other officials. The attacks set off fighting across Mali's vast northern desert, raising the prospect of significant gains by armed groups.
- The government offered 2 billion CFA francs ($3.55 million) for information leading to Iyad Ag Ghaly, the leader of the local al-Qaeda affiliate Jamaat Nusrat al-Islam wal Muslimeen
- It offered smaller rewards for several other high-level suspects, including Alghabass Ag Intalla, a Tuareg separatist leader.
- The order was signed in Bamako
