Rodrique Ngowi The Associated Press BUNIA, Congo -- Allegations of cannibalism circulated in troubled northeastern Congo yesterday, with terrified witnesses describing the mutilation and eating of the dead during more than a week of bloody tribal fighting. Church leaders and residents in Bunia, the capital of the Ituri district, said Lendu tribal fighters killed civilians and combatants, cutting open their chests and ripping out hearts, livers and lungs, which they ate while they were still warm. More than a week of fighting in Bunia subsided Friday after more than 100 were confirmed killed -- though the total toll remains unknown -- and thousands fled their homes. Frightened residents said they were terrified at the thought of it flaring up again. "The sight of a corpse with a missing liver and heart is horrific, especially when you know that those parts were eaten by fellow human beings and that the same could happen to you," said Acquitte Kisembo, a 28-year-old medical student. He said he saw several bodies with missing parts. The United Nations is taking the allegations seriously and plans to investigate the reports of cannibalism, said Amos Namanga Ngongi, head of the UN mission in Congo. The reports "cannot be so persistent and false," he told reporters in Bunia. Cannibalism has been reported in past upheavals in Congo, including the 1964 Simba rebellion and previously in the current civil war that has torn the Central African nation apart since 1998. The attacks are often fuelled by a mix of tribal hatreds and a desire to spread terror in the region. There is also a belief among some that eating one's foes is a source of power. Reports of cannibalism are also not new to Ituri, a resource-rich region that has been plagued by massacres and killings as rival tribal and rebel factions have fought for control over the past four and a half years of war. The fighting between the rival Hema and Lendu tribal factions for control of Bunia began nearly two weeks ago after Uganda withdrew its troops from the town and the surrounding area. © Copyright 2003 The Ottawa Citizen |
