What really happened to AMC-14?

Is it sold to defense? It is some where over africa now.

That is what was reported. It is in an inclined but nearly geosynchronous orbit at around 35 degrees east.

Seems like a good position to provide communications support to operations in the Middle East, including Iraq and Afghanistan.
