One person was killed on Monday near Ivory Coast's economic hub Abidjan during an opposition protest two weeks ahead of a presidential election in the West African country, a local mayor said. Jean-Paul Amethier accused security forces of killing a youth and injuring around a dozen at the demonstration in his town of Bonoua, a onetime stronghold of former first lady Simone Gbagbo about 60 kilometres (35 miles) east of Abidjan. ck-pgf/gd/jxb
