Aman Mikale Andom (1924–1974) was an important leader in the military coup which occurred in Ethiopia on September 12 1974, in which a military committee deposed Emperor Haile Selassie. Andom then became president of Ethiopia until November 17, 1974. He died in violent but unclear circumstances. Some sources say that he committed suicide, while others say that he was killed by political rivals among the coup leadership, possibly including Mengistu Haile Mariam.
