DR Congo president pledges amnesty for political prisoners via SABCNewsOnline

“To consolidate democratic progress in our country, I have decided to make the easing of tensions a major goal during the first 100 days” of his mandate, Tshisekedi told Congolese officials during a ceremony.

The president added that he would have the justice minister order the conditional release of those held for expressing their rights, especially during political rallies held ahead of elections on December 30. On Wednesday, however, dozens of people were arrested during rights protests in DR Congo, activists said, in an incident likely to pose a fresh challenge for Tshisekedi.

It marked the country’s first-ever peaceful transfer of power since independence from Belgium in 1960.
