notes: On 13 May 2021, two rival Muslim groups of the COMICO clashed against one another at the Martyrs stadium of Kinshasa (Kinshasa, Kinshasa) over a leadership/succession dispute within the organization, which took place by the end of Ramadan. The PNC attempted to contain the situation, dispersing the rioters with tear gas/firing shots in the air. During the clashes, 1 policeman was burnt to death and an older woman later died, along with vehicles vandalized. 40-49 people were injured and 30-35 detained by the PNC. An Imam's residence in Kinshasa was also set ablaze on this day by members of the Muslim community. On 2 July, another policeman, who had been injured on this day, died. [size=no report]
