Fatshimetrie, a look at Congolese and international news
The political situation in the Democratic Republic of Congo is still turbulent, and recent information concerning the accused Jean-Jacques Wondo only adds to the complexity of the situation. Indeed, following the request of the Belgian government, it was announced that the alleged assailant in the attempted coup will be consulted by a doctor from the Belgian embassy in the DRC. This decision was taken by Major Ewume Ampia Freddy, presiding judge of the Kinshasa/Gombe garrison court, and raised questions among the parties concerned.

This approach raises questions about cooperation between states and respect for the rights of defendants, even in situations as delicate as an attempted coup d’état.
