Major poacher arrested in northern Congo

A major poacher has been arrested yesterday (Saturday) in Makao, in the Likouala Department in northern Congo. Likouala has many very remote regions and the suspect must be brought all the way down the Motaba River, deep in the forests of northern Congo, to arrive to the court with jurisdiction over the case in Likouala’s capital, Impfondo. The suspect is sent with two assault rifles (AK) seized as evidence.
