location: Beni
notes: On 10 September 2021, a group of people (presumably affiliated to Veranda Mutsanga and LUCHA) clashed against the police in several parts of Beni town (Beni, Nord-Kivu) to demand the end of the State of Siege operation in light of increasing rebel attacks. 5 people were reportedly injured (including a LUCHA activist, who was shot in the leg). 50-56 others were detained. The event was triggered after a group of people burnt and killed a presumed thief in the town on this day (coded as another event). Veranda Mutsanga later denied its role in the killing and demonstrations. [size=no report]
