The government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo is to release five Burundians who were arrested on its territory. The DRC and Burundi Governments have already started talks aimed at releasing these Burundians including two militaries and three civilians.
These Burundians were arrested in November after the Congolese security forces suspected the presence of military men in a Burundian group that was joining DR Congo for prayer. The Congolese security forces suspected that these Burundians were recruits for the Congolese renegade commander, General Laurent Nkundabatware, who is waging a war in eastern Congo against the Congolese government's troops. These Burundians were stripped of their belongings which included mobile phones and money by the Congolese security forces.
The Burundian National Police succeeded in dismantling part of the recruiting network for General Nkundabatware last October. On 30 October 2007, four Burundians who were trying to cross the porous border between Burundi and Rwanda at Ruhwa were arrested. The police indicated that the ultimate destination of these Burundians, who were all from the national Tutsi-dominated quarters of Bujumbura, was to join the troops of Laurent Nkundabatware. Their accomplices of Burundian and Rwandan origins were also arrested.
