The Boteti affair

Daniel Boteti, the Vice-President of the Provincial Assembly of Kinshasa, was murdered on July 6, 2008. Patrick Mwewa, who was along with five others charged with the killing, alleged before a military tribunal on July 18 that Yango had ordered Boteti's death, offering Mwewa $1,200 to take part in the murder.[1] Kimbuta's spokesperson Therese Olenga said that the testimony was filled with "contradictions".[2]
