A former French serviceman has been detained in Madagascar over an alleged plot to destabilise the country.
The French national had been charged with multiple offences, including criminal conspiracy and plotting to sabotage infrastructure such as power lines and thermal plants.
Several other suspects, including a Malagasy army officer, were charged with the alleged plot. The coup was planned for April 18.
Prosecutors say the plot, allegedly organised through a WhatsApp group, included plans for power cuts, inciting security forces, and mobilising unrest.
