Mali's presidential election ends without incident |
2013-07-29 |
[Al Ahram] Polling closed in Mali without any major incidents on Sunday after a presidential election expected to usher in a new dawn of peace and stability in the conflict-scarred west African nation. The vote had been conducted in the shadow of a threat by an Al Qaeda-linked Islamist group to "strike" polling stations but there had been no reports of violence as booths across the country shut. |
