notes: On 5 April 2021, a group of people, including LUCHA activists, gathered in the Matonge and Butsili neighborhoods of Beni (Beni, Nord-Kivu) to protest against the MONUSCO and humanitarian workers, following the recrudescence of ADF attacks in the region. 10-13 people were arrested by the FARDC during the protest, including 2 boys and 11 LUCHA activists, out of which 10 were transferred to the Central Prison of Kangbayi. Subsequent reports suggest that 2-4 of the LUCHA detainees were seriously injured by PNC/FARDC elements and were hospitalized. [size=no report]
