Kigali deports six congolese for "activities likely to jeopardise regional security"

MISNA - September 3, 2005 2:54 PM

After Kampala, also Kigali has deported from its territory 6 Congolese nationals that taking advantage of the refugee status conceded to them by the Rwandan government were plotting' against the new government of Kinshasa. Based on the little available information and issued the RFI (Radio France International), not many details have been disclosed on the identity of the six and motives of their deportation. The only certainty is that the six Congolese (3 civilians and 3 soldiers) were accused of activities incompatible with peace and security in the region. First reports indicate that one of the six is the former governor of South Kivu, among the most turbulent of east DR-Congo. A name that certainly did not appear on the list was Colonel Jules Mutebusi, to whom Kigali officially conceded political asylum and whose formal extradition has been requested by Kinshasa. Colonel Mutebusi, along with the still at large General Laurent Nkunda, headed the attack against Bukavu (provincial capital of South Kivu) last year and successive wave of violence in the region.
