Local radio reported on July 13th that despite a deal signed in June, the expulsion of DR Congo citizens from the Republic of Congo was continuing, especially at the Kimpangala border, west of Matadi, in Bas Congo Province. The chairman of a local civil society organisation, Valentin Vangi Ndungi said that at least 1,000 DR Congo nationals, who were expelled on a daily basis, were being registered at the Pointe Noire border post. On July 11th there were violent incidents as transport fares on the road to DR Congo were raised from $50 to $150. The police shot live bullets into the air to disperse people. Ndungi added that the situation would deteriorate as both provincial and central government authorities appeared to be indifferent to the influx, and this could cause a serious security problem. (Radio Okapi, Goma 13/7) RFI, Paris said that although the Interior Ministers from both countries had met in June and made commitments to stop the expulsions, nothing had been enacted. Moreover, there were no provisions made in DR Congo to receive those expelled from Pointe Noire. (RFI, Paris 15/7) Deportations p. 20128B
