The killers, two in jumpers and one in military
uniform, broke into the house of the victim and went straight into
the children’s bedroom asking for their father (Mr. Pascal Kabungulu
Kimbembi). Awaken by the unusual noise, the wife of Mr. Pascal
Kabungulu Kimbembi tried to reach the children’s bedroom. It is then
that the killers entered the victim’s bedroom, led him into the
living room and told him: “this is the day of your death”.
Immediately after, the killers shot the victim in the stomach with
several bullets.
This horrendous crime fits into a set of
precedent targeted killings of several actives members of Heritiers
de la Justice and continued threat to an increasing number of
members of the civil society in South Kivu province.
Heritiers de la Justice calls upon national and
provincial authorities to set up a commission of inquiry into the
killing of its Executive Director, Mr. Pascal Kabungulu Kimbembi,
and to bring to justice his killers.
