Details
Eddy Kapend is a military officer from the Democratic Republic of the Congo who served as former president Laurent-Désiré Kabila's close military advisor and as the second-in-command of the Congolese army. In 2001, Kabila was assassinated by Rachidi Kasereka in his office, and Kapend killed Rachidi minutes later. In a trial widely criticized by international human rights organizations, Kapend and 80 others were convicted of participation in Kabila's killing and were sentenced to death. Released on January 8 by presidential pardon, he was exceptionally appointed by the current president of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Félix Tshisekedi, as brigadier general commander of the army in the province of Haut-Katanga on October 19, 2023. A 2011 investigative film, Murder in Kinshasa, reviewed the evidence that Kapend was not involved in Kabila's killing.
