BAMAKO (Reuters) - Malian authorities have found five corpses in army uniforms in two graves near the headquarter of a former military junta during part of an investigation into officers who briefly seized power in a coup in 2012.
The discovery brought to 30 the number of bodies dug from mass graves around the junta headquarters in Kati, about 20 km (15 miles) north of the capital Bamako. Mali's new government is trying to ascertain the fate of paratroopers who disappeared two years ago after the coup.
