Mad Dog.
A man who ate another man's flesh in the Central African Republic has told the BBC he was seeking "revenge" for the murder of family members. Ouandja Magloire, who calls himself "Mad Dog", was in a Christian mob who attacked a Muslim in the capital. He said he had been "angry" because Muslims killed his pregnant wife, his sister-in-law and her baby.
Sectarian violence has been on the rise since rebels installed the country's first Muslim leader in March 2013. "Mad Dog" told the BBC's Paul Wood he had seen his victim sitting on a minibus and decided to follow him. More and more people joined him until he was at the head of a mob of some 20 youths, he said. They forced the bus driver to stop and dragged the Muslim man out on the street, where he was beaten and stabbed before being set on fire. Footage of the incident shows "Mad Dog" eating the man's leg, our correspondent says.
According to eyewitnesses, no-one tried to intervene.
