Crowd Control in Kinshasa: Franklin Tshamala Accuses Security Forces of Discrimination and Alleged UDPS Allegiance

Franklin Tshamala, secretary general of the LGD party, denounces discriminatory treatment by police during political protests in Kinshasa, especially those organized by UDPS and its allies on September 22. He criticizes the apparent favoritism towards UDPS, which controls security forces and limits equal treatment for all citizens. Tshamala calls for fair security measures for all protesters regardless of political affiliation. The UDPS march proceeded peacefully, unlike the September 15 C64 march, which experienced clashes attributed to youth linked to the ruling party.
