Suspected Gorilla killers arrested!
Category: Uncategorized | Date: Mar 19 2008 | By: admin
Dear all,
We have just seen this headline story on the BBC home page that says an ICCN ranger has been arrested for the killings of gorillas last year which was carried on the cover of Newsweek last August. It looks like the ICCN are taking the case very seriously and we look forward to a conviction. I have asked our team in Congo will give us further details on the Manioc valley blog. The team from ICCN may also comment on this on their gorilla protection blog. We are hoping that the trial will finally get to the bottom of the reason why someone would arrange for the executions of critically endangered mountain gorillas in this magical place of Virungas.

This is tremendous news…good luck in procuring justice for gorillas and rangers alike.

Excellent news….no mercy for this man…he showed none to the poor Rugendos and tore the family apart……..I hope he gets the highest penalty available!

I find this hard to believe. sounds like a set-up to me. do you really think this ranger did this or is this the result of a witch hunt? this concerns me… justice is not served if this is the result of finding a “perpetrator” at any cost
