Captain Amadou Haya Sanogo (born 1972 or 1973) is a Malian military officer and the leader of the 2012 Malian coup d'état against President Amadou Toumani Toure. He proclaimed himself the leader of the National Committee for Recovering Democracy and Restoring the State (CNRDRE). Sanogo was also said to be involved in the arrest and resignation of acting Prime Minister Cheick Modibo Diarra, leading to the appointment of former civil servant and Secretary-General to the Presidency Django Sissoko as prime minister. According to Human Rights Watch, Sanogo’s forces have been implicated in serious human rights abuses including torture, sexual abuse, and intimidation against journalists and family members of detained soldiers.
