The north-western provinces of Cibitoke, Bubanza, Bujumbura Rural and Mairie have suffered – in varying degrees. The rains of 28-29 January 2020 particularly affected the northern and southern districts of Bujumbura Mairie, the commune of Mubimbuzi (Bujumbura Rural) and the communes of Bubanza province. • In the commune of Ntahangwa (Bujumbura Mairie), the Burundi Red Cross (BRC) and the local authorities counted 266 destroyed houses, 439 flooded houses and 1,390 internally displaced persons (IDPs). • In Bubanza, 266 houses were destroyed while 461 were partially destroyed. In addition, 3 people died, 19 were injured, and 1,507 people were displaced and left homeless. • In Mutimbuzi commune, the banks of the Rusizi River overflowed and flooded several districts of Gatumba, including Kinyinya 1&2, Muyange 1&2, Mushasha 1&2, Gaharawe (Bujumbura Mairie). According to the DTM, the first assessment reported 750 destroyed, 675 partially destroyed, and 942 flooded houses, as well as 9,743 IDPs in extreme need.

  • Rapports 2018 Compilés
    1 ii i MOT AU LECTEUR La documentation des crimes en cours au Burundi n’est pas une chose facile. Et pour cause, les défenseurs des droits humains qui se sont donné la mission d’exposer les crimes commis par le régime font face à bien des obstacles. A part que les associations qui servent de cadre d’intervention ont été interdites de fonctionner sur le territoire burundais, les moniteurs des droits humains sont obligés de se cacher, tandis que leurs relais ont été contraints à l’exile. La question de moyens se pose avec acuité et la collaboration avec les autorités administratives, policières, judiciaires, militaires et politiques est également compliquée. Cependant, certaines autorités, conscientes des enjeux qui entourent la crise burundaise, brisent le silence et révèlent des informations aux moniteurs qui les traitent et en rapportent, sous la supervision d’une équipe dynamique et expérimentée qui opère depuis l’étranger, en raison de la persécution dont ses membres ont fait l’objet. Créé en 2002 au lendemain de la signature de l’Accord d’Arusha pour la paix et la réconciliation, le FORSC a marqué les deux dernières décennies par un travail remarquable de défense des droits humains, des valeurs démocratiques, la bonne gouvernance et la lutte contre l’impunité. D’aucuns savent le rôle joué par cette organisation dans le plaidoyer pour la mise en place des mécanismes de justice transitionnelle, une mission qui a carrément échoué en raison de la volonté du régime à privatiser le processus à son profit. Lors que le parti CNDD-FDD cherche à changer la Constitution de 2005, le FORSC a vaillamment joué son rôle de veille et a mobilisé ses organisations sœurs, des burundais de tous les domaines de la vie nationale, la diaspora et la communauté internationale pour dire non à la destruction des piliers sur lesquels reposaient la stabilité du pays à savoir la constitution du Burundi et l’accord d’Arusha pour la paix et la réconciliation.

    Acat -Burundi Rapport sur le Monitoring des Violations et atteintes aux droits de l’homme commises au Burundi. Période du mois de juillet 2021 Plan du présent rapport INTRODUCTION. ASSASSINATS ET ENLEVEMENTS ARRESTATIONS ARBITRAIRES ET DETENTIONS ILLEGALES ATTEINTES A L’INTEGRITE PHYSIQUE CONCLUSION RECOMMANDATIONS INTRODUCTION. La crise politico-sécuritaire que traverse le Burundi depuis avril 2015 continue d’alimenter les violations des droits de l’homme au détriment du peuple burundais qui en paie le lourd tribut alors qu’il aspire comme ailleurs à un Etat de droit. La tendance des violations des droits de l’homme documentées depuis le début de la crise politique en avril 2015 reste inchangée. Il s’agit principalement des exécutions sommaires, des disparitions forcées, des arrestations et des détentions arbitraires, des actes de torture et des mauvais traitements qui continuent à être observés. Les victimes de ces violations restent en majorité des opposants au Gouvernement et/ou au parti au pouvoir (le Conseil National pour la Défense de la Démocratie-Forces pour la Défense de la Démocratie-CNDD-FDD) ou des personnes perçues comme tels : membres de partis politiques d’opposition (en particulier du Congrès National pour la Liberté(CNL),le parti fondé par l’ancien leader des FNL, Agathon RWASA et du Mouvement pour la Solidarité et la Démocratie (MSD),les sympathisants de groupes armés d’opposition , des burundais tentant de fuir le pays et de ce fait suspectés de rejoindre ces groupes , ou journalistes et membres d’organisations de la société civile. Les agents de l’Etat à l’instar des policiers, des agents du Service National de Renseignement (SNR) associés aux miliciens Imbonerakure jeunes affiliés au parti au pouvoir le CNDD-FDD, sont pointés du doigt comme les auteurs présumés de ces violations massives des droits de l’homme.

  • Rapport D'octobre 2017
    Association Burundaise pour la Protection des Droits Humains et des Personnes Détenues «A.PRO.D.H» RAPPORT D’OCTOBRE 2017 I.INTRODUCTION. Le présent rapport porte sur les différentes violations des droits humains commises dans différentes localités du pays, qui ont pu être enregistrées par nos observateurs des droits humains. au cours du mois d’octobre 2017 Pour mieux apprécier la situation des droits humains dans notre pays , notre rapport procède d’abord, comme à l’accoutumé, par une analyse contextuelle de la situation sécuritaire, politique, judiciaire et sociale. Ainsi, au plan sécuritaire, nous évoquerons un état d’insécurité permanente dans le pays, caractérisé par des attaques d’ hommes armés qui restent non identifiés, par des exactions des Imbonerakure (jeunes affiliés au parti au pouvoir, le CNDD/FDD) qui, dans certaines localités du pays, se sont substitués aux forces de l’ordre et font la pluie et le beau temps. Dans le domaine politique, il évoque les marches manifestations qui sont toujours organisées par le gouvernement pour désavouer certains dirigeants et institutions internationales qui sont qualifiés de soutenir l’opposition burundaise à l’étranger. D’autres de manifestations sont organisées pour soutenir les institutions en place au Burundi et les décisions qui sont prises par les dirigeants de ces institutions à commencer par celle du chef de l’Etat. Dans le domaine judiciaire, le rapport reviendra sur les cas d’arrestations arbitraires et de détentions illégales, d’enlèvement, des cas de personnes portées disparues où les victimes sont principalement les présumés opposants politiques, des membres des partis de l’opposition et des citoyens des zones et communes qualifiées de contestataires du 3ème mandat de Pierre NKURUNZIZA.
