The military governor of Ituri, Lieutenant-General Luboya N'kashama Johnny, is asking the ICC (International Criminal Court) to prosecute the recruiters of these displaced people.
"These young people that you see there, sacrificed, who come from poor families, displaced, victims, but we want to victimize them a second time. They went to recruit them because they are vulnerable, and also, because when they recruit them, there are some who will speak to defend these enemies. They are displaced people, that is a criminal act, it is a crime against humanity. We ask the ICC to take care of them because they are going to the displaced persons site," declared the gorvenor.
According to Intelligence from the local society and military sources within FARDC under the state of siege, the province of Ituri is under threat of attack by the M23, which collaborates with the Zaire militia, active in the territory of Djugu.
