Diary: Protecting mountain gorillas
FRIDAY 9 NOVEMBER - SEEKING JUSTICE
The fighting continues in our Gorilla Sector, but we are still trying to bring to justice those responsible for the July massacre of the Rugendo family.
Two suspects have been detained since August and are being held in Goma.
The case is being heard by the Tribunal des Grandes Instances - the highest court in the province.
The first hearing was scheduled for early October, but this was postponed until mid-November to allow for further enquiries.
This investigation, as you can well imagine, is being hampered by the current security situation.
