The United Nations mission in Mali has demanded an immediate release of President Bah Ndaw and Prime Minister Moctar Ouane, after reports that they were detained by soldiers.
In a tweet in French, the Minusma mission also called for calm in the impoverished West African nation.
This comes after reports that interim President Ndaw and Mr Ouane were driven by soldiers to the Kati military camp near the capital, Bamako.
The move has however raised fears of a second coup within a year in the country.
According to reports, Defence Minister Souleymane Doucouré was also been detained.
