At least 21 children have been kidnapped in Ivory Coast since December and most have been found dead with their bodies mutilated in a wave of ritual killings some residents fear may be linked to upcoming elections.
Police Chief Brindou Mbia said security forces had been placed on high alert after the spate of child abductions, but he declined to speculate what was behind the killings.
In the commercial capital Abidjan, where at least three children have been abducted, residents expressed concern for the safety of their young ones.

UNICEF’s representative in Ivory Coast, Adele Khudr, showed his deep concern in a statement that " UNICEF is deeply worried by the kidnapping of children and the mutilated bodies that have been found,"
