Maître Crépin Mboli-Goumba, president of the PATRIE party and coordinator of the Bloc républicain pour la défense de la Constitution du 30 mars 2016 (BRDC), held a press conference alongside Martin Ziguele on 11 September 2026 to criticize government conduct in criminal investigations. He accused authorities of identifying culprits before inquiries conclude, stating, "Moi, je ne vais pas faire comme le gouvernement, c’est-à-dire trouver des coupables avant même l’enquête." He added, "Avant l’enquête, on sait déjà qu’il y a des commanditaires." During the briefing, the politician questioned state responsibility, asserting, "L’État a été absent," and asked, "Est-ce qu’on a cherché à savoir qui appartenait le camion ? Est-ce que le camion est assuré ?" He further claimed, "Les Centrafricains meurent tous les jours," asking, "Vous aimez plus les étrangers que vos compatriotes centrafricains ?"
Questioning Premature Official Conclusions
A Swiss national died in the République centrafricaine under circumstances that have not yet been fully elucidated. Authorities have provided limited information regarding the incident, which remains subject to ongoing scrutiny. The lack of clarity surrounding the death has drawn attention from political figures who continue to monitor the progress of official investigations. No further details regarding the identity of the individual or the specific location of the death have been released by the government at this time. Officials have not confirmed whether a formal inquiry has been opened to determine the cause of the fatality. The case remains a point of contention for those seeking transparency in how state institutions handle criminal matters involving foreign nationals in the country.
Investigating Deaths in Ndélé and Bimbo
A transporteur centrafricain was killed in the town of Ndélé. Authorities have not disclosed specific details regarding the circumstances of this death or the current status of any related criminal inquiry.
Separately, multiple people died in an incident in Bimbo. This event requires a formal investigation to determine the causes and circumstances surrounding the fatalities. The government has yet to provide full information or confirm the initiation of legal proceedings into the deaths occurring in these two locations.
