Journalist charged over execs' murder

KINSHASA: A Congolese journalist suspected of having information about the 2017 killing of two United Nations experts in the central Democratic Republic of Congo was charged on Wednesday (Thursday in Manila), the military prosecutor's office said. Sosthene Kambidi, who has been held since his arrest in the capital Kinshasa on Monday night, 'is no longer being questioned as a witness, but as an accused,' a senior prosecutor told Agence France-Presse, declining to be identified. 'The interrogation is continuing,' the prosecutor added, declining to say what the journalist had been charged with.
