Congolese General Bosco Ntaganda, the former rebel leader who is wanted by the International Criminal Court on war-crimes charges, should be arrested and prosecuted, Human Rights Watch said.
Ntaganda should be “made to answer for his crimes, rather than being allowed to walk freely,” Anneke van Woudenberg, a senior researcher at the New York-based advocacy group, said in an e-mailed statement today. “He is a threat to the people of eastern Congo and is making a mockery of the Congolese government’s policy of zero tolerance for human-rights abuses.”
