The Democratic Republic of Congo extradited two top officials from a Rwandan rebel group to face charges at home, a blow for the militants who’ve carried out sporadic attacks on Rwandan soil.
Ignace Nkaka, a spokesman for the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda, and Theophile Abega, an intelligence chief, have been returned to Congo’s neighbor after they were captured in December, according to officials from both governments.
