Indian Government assures Congolese victim's kin of speedy trial
New Delhi: The Indian Government on Monday assured the family members of African national Masunda Oliver, who was brutally killed in the national capital, that speedy trial would take place in the case and all the three accused would be prosecuted as per law of the land.
Birender Yadav, Joint Secretary (West Africa), who met the family members of Oliver at the airport, offered his heartfelt condolences and informed that the Indian government would bear all the expenses to dispatch his mortal remains back to the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
The family members would be meeting Yadav at his office later in the day along with the DRC Ambassador.
The government had yesterday announced that it would arrange the transportation of the African national back to his country.
"In the unfortunate death of Mr. Masunda Oliver, the Government will assist his family to travel to India to receive his mortal remains. We will also arrange for his mortal remains to be transported to DR Congo at our expense," Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) official spokesperson Vikas Swarup tweeted.
Meanwhile, four more isolated cases of alleged attacks on African nationals have emerged from the national capital.
The Delhi Police said that all the four isolated incidents of alleged attacks happened last Thursday in Mehrauli area.
The Police have claimed that these are four separate incidents which have nothing to do with the violence against Indians in Congo, following the Congolese youth's murder in Vasant Kunj area here.
Following the death of the Congolese student, the government kicked into action while assuring that they were committed to the security of national nationals in the country.
