Burundi's forgotten victims - online petition for an end to impunity

22-08-2003 06:56

My sister Charlotte was one of more than 300,000 civilians killed in Burundi's vicious civil war. Her death was exceptional only for the fact that it was noticed by the international media (ie.  http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/1093135.stm). By and large, the world ignores Burundi. By and large, Burundi's elite is content to allow the killers to kill with impunity. My family is campaigning for justice for all of Burundi's forgotten victims.  http://www.petitiononline.com/Burundi/
