Title: The tenacity of Franck Diongo, president of the MLP, during his detention at Military Intelligence in Ngaliema
Introduction :
Since his arrest on June 19, Franck Diongo, president of the Progressive Lumumbist Movement (MLP), has been the subject of numerous discussions and controversies concerning his conditions of detention and his state of health. While alarming rumors are circulating on social networks, a recent video shows Franck Diongo circulating at ease in the Military Intelligence compound in Ngaliema and in good health, thus contradicting the contradictory information that had been circulating until then.
A reassuring state of health:
In recent days, Franck Diongo’s lawyers have expressed concern about his state of health, saying he would be between life and death. However, the recent video demonstrates the opposite. We see the president of the MLP cheerfully chatting with two individuals who have come to greet him, thus showing that he is in possession of all his faculties. This scene contradicts the claims of his party members who said he was in a state of unconsciousness and suffered from physical complications.
Concerning prison conditions:
Despite the fact that Franck Diongo appears to be in good health, it is important to underline the concerns regarding his conditions of detention. Since his arrest, many voices, both nationally and internationally, have denounced the prison conditions to which he is subjected. Conflicting reports about his condition have sparked concerns and demands for transparency about his treatment. It is essential to guarantee dignified and human rights-respecting conditions of detention, regardless of a person’s political status.
Conclusion :
The recent video showing Franck Diongo in good health has shed some light on his current situation. While it is encouraging to see that he is doing well, it is important to continue efforts to ensure just and humane conditions of detention for all detainees, regardless of their political affiliations. It is essential to prioritize respect for human rights and the application of the law in any situation of detention
