north of Ituri province, testified that he had been the victim of torture by South Sudanese
soldiers who had made multiple incursions in this part of the national territory. According to
the victim who confided in this
buniaactualite.com this Monday, June 15, 2020, these foreign soldiers, numbering around 50
heavily armed people, managed to cross the border around 9 p.m., before tackling the customs agents. "They surrounded us and
since other agents were far away, there was no way for them to approach us at the time of the
torture because of the large numbers of these soldiers," he said. And to continue: "Among the
people affected, there is a police officer, an ANR agent, an DGM agent, and that of border
hygiene." It should be noted that these soldiers Vwho were well identified also took several
goods including an AK 47 weapon belonging to an element of the Congolese national police
and a large sum of money. The injured officers called on the government to deploy the
Congolese armed forces to ensure the security and completeness of the territory.
