DR Congo’s Supreme Court has ordered the release of three prominent pro-democracy leaders held for more than a year for opposing a fresh term for veteran President Joseph Kabila.
The three were arrested during protests to oppose changes to the constitution in January. Talk of president Kabila hanging on beyond the expiry of his second term on December 20 has whipped up fresh tension in the country of 71 million people.
