French strenuously deny they captured Gbagbo

Laurent Gbagbo, deposed president of Ivory Coast is now in the custody of former IMF man Alassane Outtara's French and UN backed forces.

His capture occurred after a French assault involving armoured vehicles and aircraft but both the French and the Outtara forces they've been heavily supporting are adamant that the French didn't capture him.

As has previously been discussed Gbagbo probably wasn't a decent person either but its always a shame to see colonial armies and their proxies triumph.
