Due to the insecurity, poor roads, and lack of mobile phone network coverage, notes like these are often the only way to inform friends and family about the death of loved ones. This note was sent on September 8 from a woman in Mbres to her husband in a displacement camp in Kaga Bandoro. The wife informs her husband that his grandmother, 60 year old Ibiya Choubouchou, was killed in a Seleka attack. Choubouchou was killed around September 6 near the village of Sabyambo.
