On July 8, 2019, Trial Chamber VI of the International Criminal Court found [3] Bosco Ntaganda guilty of eighteen counts of war crimes and crimes against humanity, committed from 2002 to 2003 in Ituri, Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). The case relates to his position as the former Deputy Chief of Staff and commander of operations of the Union des Patriotes Congolais/Forces Patriotiques pour la Libération du Congo (UPC/FPLC) and his role in the non-international armed conflict taking place in the DRC at that time. As noted in the press release [4], the Court found Ntanganda “guilty of crimes against humanity (murder and attempted murder, rape, sexual slavery, persecution, forcible transfer and deportation) and war crimes (murder and attempted murder, intentionally directing attacks against civilians, rape, sexual slavery, ordering the displacement of the civilian population, conscripting and enlisting children under the age of 15 years into an armed group and using them to participate actively in hostilities, intentionally directing attacks against protected objects, and destroying the adversary's property).”
