Impunity for rape, murder and other abuses is still widespread in Burundi despite a change of government, a U.N. report released on Thursday said.

The report comes days after Burundi’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission, which is examining past atrocities and investigating mass graves, issued rare criticism of local leaders in charge during a 1972 massacre.

The security forces and youth wing of the ruling party, the Imbonerakure, continue to have almost total impunity for beatings, kidnappings and sexual violence, the report said. Burundi has the same ethnic make-up as neighbouring Rwanda, whose 1994 genocide by Hutu militias killed around 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus.

We critically need better leaders! No matter where you live or what religion you practice, murder, rape, discrimination, or abuse is wrong anywhere. We are all equal in this world. We have to fight for each other, strive for compassion & empathy!

Our heart goes toward the families that have suffered from this senseless violence.

Speaking of abuse, anyone in your organization investigating the reports on involuntary hysterectomies taken place on migrants?

White supremacy?

The UN cannot be taken seriously. They have China sitting on their human rights council. China.
