Title: The fight against “kuluna” criminals intensifies in Kwilu province
Introduction :
The province of Kwilu, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, is facing a rise in crime perpetrated by “kuluna”, gangs of delinquents who sow terror in the region. However, a glimmer of hope recently appeared with local police operations, which resulted in the arrest of twenty-eight suspected criminals, including their local leader. This intensification of measures to combat crime was welcomed by the population and local authorities. In this article, we present in detail these actions and their impact on security in Kwilu province.
Operation details:
The operation carried out by the Kwilu police led to the arrest of twenty-eight suspected criminals, including three women, accused of being accomplices of the “kuluna”. Among these arrests, also includes the head of the Bois-Rouge district, in the commune of Diasasi, who allegedly facilitated criminal activities by harboring delinquents in his home. This arrest aroused the indignation of local authorities, dismayed to see that it was people from the community who were participating in the desolation of their own town.
The role of the population in the fight against crime:
The vice-governor of Kwilu, Félicien Kiway, stressed the importance of the collaboration of the population with the police to restore peace and security in the region. He therefore invites the population to report any suspicious activity and to work closely with the authorities to put an end to the actions of “kuluna” criminals. This public awareness is essential to reinforce the effectiveness of the measures taken by the police and contribute to improving security in the province.
Relief for traders and citizens:
Thanks to large-scale operations carried out by the Kwilu police, a lull has been observed in the area. Testimonies from residents indicate that the movement of people has become freer, even late at night. This increase in security is seen as a positive sign for traders and peaceful citizens, who can now go about their activities in complete peace of mind. The bravery of the general of the PNC (Congolese National Police) in his actions was praised by the local authorities, who see in this improvement in security a favorable potential for the economic development of the region.
