Security forces in the South American overseas territory of French Guiana have arrested a man suspected of having killed a member of the gendarme police force, according to the local prosecutor's office.
The 20-year-old man was arrested by members of the same unit, the GIGN, and taken into custody on Saturday in connection with last month's shooting, Yves Le Clair, the prosecutor for Cayenne, the capital of the overseas territory, told the AFP news agency.
