## Club career
### Atlas

Hugo Ayala started his professional career with Atlas. He made his official debut in 2006 as a starter against C.D. Guadalajara. Although Atlas lost 3–1 he became an often used substitute ending the season. In the next season he starting showing great talent in defending and became a starter in Atlas's defensive line up, leading Atlas all the way to the quarter-finals to face Club América, but lost to them in an aggregate score of (7–4). Throughout his career with Atlas he was mostly used as a substitute until the manager, Ricardo La Volpe, took his place as manager of Atlas. La Volpe then started having confidence in Ayala, and made Ayala a starter and captain for Atlas.

He retired in 2023, and became assistant for Tigres' head coach Marco Antonio Ruiz.

# State of Emergency Inquiry Board (Tigray)

The State of Emergency Inquiry Board for the Tigray Region is an Ethiopian governmental body created to monitor, investigate and prevent human rights violations during the state of emergency of the Tigray War that started in late November 2020.

## Creation

The State of Emergency Inquiry Board was established under Article 93/6 of the 1995 Constitution of Ethiopia by the Ethiopian House of Peoples' Representatives (HoPR) in November 2020 in the context of the state of emergency declared at the beginning of the Tigray War.

## Statutory role

Under Article 93/6, the Inquiry Board is obliged to (a) publish the names of anyone arrested under the state of emergency and the reasons for the arrest within a month; (b) investigate and prevent "inhumane" measures; (c) recommend corrective measures to the prime minister or cabinet; (d) "ensure prosecution" of people suspected of inhumane acts; (e) present its views to HoPR on any request to extend the state of emergency. On 22 January 2021, the NGO Ethiopian Human Rights Council (EHRCO) described the Inquiry Board's role as including human rights investigations during and after the war.

## Members

The Inquiry Board is chaired by Lemma Tesemma. The other six members are Jembernesh Kinfe, Hawa Ali, Alebachew Lakew, Zerihun Petros, Askale Tilahun and Wendimu Gizaw. In November 2020, Lemma invited complaints about the implementation of the state of emergency to contact the Inquiry Board by telephone, postal mail, email, online social networks or in person at the Parliament.

## Actions

In early December 2020, after onsite visits, the Inquiry Board stated that crimes by the Tigray People's Liberation Front (TPLF) against civilians and in the 4 November Northern Command attacks constituted a crime against humanity and that the TPLF would be "accountable" to the International Criminal Court (ICC). According to Ethiopian News Agency, the chairperson Lemma called for "hunting down" of suspects.
On 12 December, the Inquiry Board stated that refugees returning from Sudan accused TPLF forces of bribing Sudanese security forces to assault civilians. The Board described the events as war crimes for which the suspects would be accountable to the ICC. In relation to the Humera massacre, the Board reported on 20 civilians deliberately killed in the intensive care unit in the Humera Hospital.
# Serge Teyssot-Gay

Serge Teyssot-Gay (French pronunciation: ; born 16 May 1963 in Saint-Étienne, Loire) is a French musician. He was the guitarist of rock group Noir Désir until 29 November 2010. He met the other members of the band at school in Bordeaux (Lycée Saint-Genès) in the 1980s. Aside from Noir Désir, his other musical endeavours include:
* the trio "Zone libre [fr]", which became a quintet for 6 albums and tours
* the guitar-oud duo with Khaled AlJaramani [fr] known as Interzone [fr]
* works with writers: music and literature
* two solo albums: "Silence radio [fr]" (1996) and "On croit qu'on en est sorti [fr]" (2000)
At the beginning of his music career, he favoured the use of the Gibson Les Paul guitar. However, since the release of Noir Désir's 1996 album 666.667 Club, a custom Fender Stratocaster closely resembling the Lite Ash model has become his most frequently used guitar. His brand new one is a Meloduende model "Black Sword".
