1000 killed in Zaire riots
KINSHASA. Zaire. Feb 2: At least 1,000 people were kilted when presidential guards put down riots by army soldiers who refused to accept the new 5-milllon Zaire notes they were paid with, Zaire's transition government said Monday, reports AP.
Jean Joseph Mukcndi, spokesman for Prime Minister Etienne Tshisekedi, . told Associated Press "There were at least 1,000 dead. They were mostly soldiers."
Western diplomats earlier said hundreds had died when Mobutu’s presidential guard put dowh a mutiny by regular army troops. And one diplomat. interviewed earlier Monday, said the number of dead could reach 1,000.
Mobutu has accused Tshlsckedl of treason, saying he caused the violence by urging soldiers to refuse to accept newly printed 5-million zaire bank notes. The regular army troops mutinied after shopkeepers refused the notes, and Mobutu sent his special forces.
There was way to confirm the number of deaths. And there was no comment from Mobutu, who remains In his ancestral village of Gbadolitc, 1,900 kilometres (1,160 miles) north of the capital. Zairian television, which remains under his control, has released no figures on the number of dead.
Presidential guards barred access Monday to a camp near Kinshasa's airport, which the diplomat said Mobutu's men had attacked.
In Brussels, Belgian Foreign Minister Willy Claes said at least 300 people were reportedly killed after Mobutu sent in his special forces to suppress the riots. Claes did not specify how many of the dead were soldiers, but added the total cpuld not specify how many of the dead were soldiers. but added the total could be much higher.
Mobutu's troops may have disposed of many bodies, Claes added, speaking in Brussels, Belgium.
The riots began Thursday with soldiers robbing foreigners and looting their homes, but then escalated Into a
power struggle between troops loyal to Mobutu and those supporting Zaire's democracy movement.
Zaire’s impoverished economy has collapsed and many blame Mobutu, the country's ruler for 27 years. But Mobutu has refused to cede control of the treasury, military or other key institutions to a transitional government he appointed under pressure from the United States, France and other aid donors.
A statement read on Zairian television Monday night on behalf of Mobutu said anyone refusing to accept the new notes would be guilty of treason, and that new 1.0-million zaire notes would soon be introduced.
