Raids targeting associates of F. Tshisekedi in Belgium: UDPS denounces a plot

UDPS acting president Augustin Kabuya rejected on October 20 alleged corruption and money-laundering accusations against associates of Félix Tshisekedi in Belgium. He said raids conducted on October 14 in Brussels and surrounding municipalities were intended to tarnish the president’s image, linking the case to debate over constitutional change in the DRC without providing evidence. The Belgian judicial investigation followed a complaint filed in July 2025 by civil society organizations from Grand Katanga, alleging offenses connected to the exploitation of mining resources.
