La famille Lumumba réclame la vérité judiciaire

Belgian lawyer Christophe Marchand (L) and family members of murdered Congolese independence icon Patrice Lumumba Yema Lumumba (2nd L) and Mehdi Lumumba (R), arrive for a press conference following a hearing before a Belgian court to weigh prosecuting the sole surviving suspect over the 1961 killing, in Brussels, on January 19, 2026. Some 65 years after Lumumba was executed and his body dissolved in acid by separatists with the help of mercenaries from former colonial power Belgium, only one ex-official is still alive to face justice. That is 93-year-old Etienne Davignon, a one-time European commissioner, who was a novice Belgian diplomat at the time of Lumumba's killing. JOHN THYS / AFP
