FDLR combatants killed their commanders so they could escape to Rwanda

{After spending three years in the military service of FDLR-RUDI rebel group, ex-combatants of that group killed their three commanders in Walikare in DRC so they could escape to Rwanda.}

A local news site reported that Muhirwa Robert alias Silas and his colleagues escaped after having killed three FDLR commanders who were in charge of them.

Muhirwa told the same news site that he left Congo after more than three years of forced work within the FDLR, a genocidal rebel group currently operating in the Democratic Republic of Congo, but with a view to overthrow the regime in Kigali.

Most of FDLR fighters have committed the 1994 Genocide against Tutsis and currently Rwanda has asked both MONUSCO and DRC Army to disarm the group which Rwanda says it is a threat to its security and wellbeing of the citizens.
