General Amadou Sanogo, who led the coup against the government of Amadou Toumani Toure in March 2012, was summoned to appear in court in Bamako to answer questions about alleged atrocities committed by troops under his command against soldiers loyal to then-president Toure. Last week Amnesty International accused Sanogo loyalists of the extrajudicial killing of mutineers at a military barracks in Bamako in September.
