The DRC parliament has voted to lift former President Joseph Kabila's immunity over allegations of supporting M23 rebels. Kabila, who ruled from 2001 to 2019, denies the charges of treason and war crimes. The decision allows for potential prosecution, as the government seeks to address Kabila's alleged involvement in insurrection. The PPRD party claims the actions against Kabila are a distraction from the country's real issues. Kabila has been living in South Africa and aims to resolve the ongoing conflict in the east, where multiple armed groups are active.
