KINSHASA, Democratic Republic of Congo, Nov. 18 (UPI) -- A crackdown on organized gangs in the Democratic Republic of Congo has led to the execution of dozens by police, Human Rights Watch said.
A report Monday by the human rights advocacy group, based in New York, said up to 51 people were executed and 33 others disappeared in "Operation Likofi," a four-month anticrime campaign in Kinshasa, the Congolese capital, in 2013.
