Native resident Ibrahim Ag Nita described the scene: “Two days ago, some Ansar al-Din and al-Qaeda elements entered the Paperwork Centre at Ahmed Baba Institute and instructed the attendees that the Islamic Sharia solely approves of Islamic non secular books as a result of they assist boost doctrine, and that books of other sciences, resembling math, astronomy and different sciences, usually are not helpful to Muslims and have to be eliminated.” Although vacant, it might be ill-advised to attempt to trespass – the property is covered with safety cameras, one among which is true above the entranceway (the not-visible nook in the beneath photo).
