BANGUI (Reuters) - Mariam watched in horror as militiamen burst through the gate of her home in Central African Republic's capital Bangui and demanded her husband say whether he was Muslim. When he said yes, they shot him dead.
"They killed him just like that in front of our child," said Mariam, who fled through the back door. "Then they hacked and clubbed our neighbours, a husband and wife, to death."
