A military court in the Democratic Republic of Congo on Tuesday sentenced ex-president Joseph Kabila to death in absentia for “treason”.
Kabila, 54, went on trial in July accused of treason, war crimes and complicity with the M23 anti-government armed group, which has seized swathes of the resource-rich Congolese east with Rwandan help.
He left the vast central African country in 2023 and briefly reappeared in the volatile east in May but his current whereabouts are unknown.
