January 8, 2025, marks one year since the disappearance of NIZIGAMA Corinne, a 24-year-old woman from Mirama Hill, Muyira Zone, Kanyosha Commune, in the former province of Bujumbura Rural.<\/p>

On January 8, 2024, at around 8:20 p.m., while she was at a location known as \u201cKu Masalon,\u201d in the Gasenyi neighborhood of Bujumbura, she was allegedly forcibly taken by individuals identified as agents of the National Intelligence Service (Service national de renseignement \u2013 SNR), in a Toyota vehicle of the TI type, registration number B0857A.<\/p>

Since then, her family has received no news of her fate and does not know where she is being held.<\/p>

CONCERNING INFORMATION REQUIRING JUDICIAL INVESTIGATION<\/strong><\/h4>

King Umurundi Freedom (KUF-ASBL) states that it has received information it considers reliable indicating that Samuel NTARYABASOVYE, identified as an SNR agent and originally from the same Muyira area as Corinne, was allegedly aboard the vehicle bearing registration number B0857A on the day of her disappearance. According to this information, he may also have played a role in organizing the alleged abduction.<\/p>

The organization has also received information implicating NAHIMANA V\u00e9n\u00e9rande, identified as the head of the Kanyosha Communal Education Directorate (DCE Kanyosha) and vice-president of the CNDD-FDD party in Mukaza Commune. Her possible involvement in this disappearance must be examined through an independent and thorough investigation.<\/p>

These allegations must be verified by the competent judicial authorities. The individuals named should be questioned on the basis of verifiable information and evidence and given the opportunity to respond to any allegations against them, in full respect of their rights.<\/p>
