A person in charge of the Sonothèque-Afrique [?Sound Library] within Radio France International (RFI), stated during a 21 telephone interview 1999 that, no 8 September 1998 broadcast by Ahmat Yacoub has been found among their archives. However, she added that RFI is big organization and more additional information such as the name of the journalist who conducted the interview, the type (title, context) of the emission would assist further research.

This Response was prepared after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the Research Directorate within time constraints. This Response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum.
