Bujumbura

Burundi's security forces killed two robbers in Bukeye commune last night. In the same operation, one rifle and two hand grenades belonging to the gang of robbers were seized.

Bukeye commune borders with Kibira forest. The population of this commune continues to be the target of either gangs of robbers or PALIPEHUTU-FNL combatants who emerge from this forest to look for food supplies amid the population that is already hard pressed by hunger. Two FNL combatants were killed last in this commune as they were trying to rob the inhabitants of Bukeye commune.

In another development, last night security forces killed a person in the northern quarter of Muyaga in the capital Bujumbura. The deceased had mental disorders. The body of this person was left in the open with no care until midday when the deceased's father arrived to arrange the funeral.
