Gunmen in Burundi shot dead an army major and wounded the husband of the senate's deputy speaker, police said Monday, the latest violence in near daily gun battles. Burundi descended into violence in April after President Pierre Nkurunziza launched his now successful bid for a third consecutive term in office, despite concerns over the legality of such a move. Late Sunday, insurgents opened fire on the bar in the capital Bujumbura, killing the officer and wounding Damascus Hakizimana, husband of the first Vice President of the Senate, Spes-Njebarikanuye Caritas, a powerful ruling party member.
