Four armed infiltrators from DRC shot dead in Rubavu

It was about 1.00 a.m today when a gang of armed men yet to be identified attacked Busasamana Sector in Rubavu District and wounded one resident.

 

Officers from RDF in the area reacted as instantly, pursued and fired, killing four of them.

Busasamana Sector executive secretary, Epimaque Uwimana told IGIHE that the attackers have not been identified and that the resident who caught the bullet at home was taken to Bugeshi health center.

Today, early in the morning local authorities summoned a security meeting at the scene of the attack, and residents were shown the bodies of the four attackers who were shot dead to see if they knew them.

They had documents that indicate that they are DRC citizens with voters’ cards.

Bugeshi and Busasamana sectors border the Democratic Republic of the Congo. They are often targeted by armed attacks from the country.
