The celebration of International Women’s Day on 8 March provided a crucial springboard to foreground issues, concerns, and stories of triumph across the continent. Women took centre stage – from the launch of a new podcast featuring youth voices, to a book honouring women leaders, to speaking out against misogynistic attacks.

DR Congo: Quash Whistleblowers' Death Sentences

(Kinshasa) – Authorities in the Democratic Republic of Congo should quash the death sentences imposed
in absentia on two whistleblowers who provided information on corruption. Congolese authorities should instead investigate the allegations of criminal activity reported by Gradi Koko and Navy Malela, two former bank employees who exposed alleged illegal financial practices and money laundering.
Koko and Malela both worked in the audit department of Afriland First Bank CD, the Congolese subsidiary of Afriland First Bank, whose headquarters are in Cameroon. Koko said that in 2018 his superiors at the bank directly threatened him after he reported serious financial irregularities internally. In the face of these threats, he and Malela shared a trove of data and documents with the Platform for the Protection of African Whistleblowers (PPLAAF), a nongovernmental organization based in France. The information they provided led to a series of investigative reports in July 2020 by PPLAAF, Global Witness, and media outlets, including Bloomberg, Le Monde, and Haaretz.

Despite sanctions, millions flowed into DRC bank accounts linked to Israeli tycoon

American law forbids banking institutions from providing service in American currency to people on the sanctions list. In effect, the U.S. authorities have found ways of imposing the rules on companies and banks that are not incorporated in the United States – as long as an American entity is also involved in the process of receiving the money. According to the legal precedent on the matter, it’s enough for the foreign bank to use a U.S. information system for the sanctions to apply to it.
Gertler claims in response to this report that based on a legal opinion he commissioned, the sanctions do not apply to the dollar activity attributed to his associates in DRC, one reason being that Afriland has no link to the United States. However, in an interview he recently gave to the French radio station RFI, Patrick Kafindo, director of the Afriland branch in the Congolese capital of Kinshasa, admitted that the bank itself believes that the sanctions regime applies to it and claimed that the bank enforced them and froze accounts connected to Gertler. In fact, the bank documents reveal that the accounts of Gertler’s associates, including his wife’s, were quite active, and allegedly took in tens of millions of dollars.
