March of September 15: VSV condemns the use of violence that has become 'commonplace' during protests and calls for coverage of the funeral of the slain activist

A week after the September 15 protests in Kinshasa, the Voice of the Voiceless for Human Rights (VSV) condemns the violence against peaceful protesters, which resulted in the death of 23-year-old activist Manassé Lomboto Bomengola from the ADD-Congo party. The organization criticizes the use of violence by certain political parties to suppress protests and calls for respect for the freedom to demonstrate, while also praising the release of several detained members. The VSV views these actions as violations of human rights and the Congolese Constitution.
