Ex-Presidential Advisor Biselele in 3-Some
A former private advisor to Congolese President Felix Tshisekedi, Fortunat Biselele is at the centre of a scandal after a video of him with two young women in bed leaked.
The video was reportedly taken a few days after he was released from prison.
Biselele was arrested by the National Intelligence Agency (ANR) and charged with “treason, undermining the external security of the State and propagation of false rumours”.
He was incarcerated on January 20, and was released on July 22.
In the video, he is seen having quality time with two unidentified females.
Biselele was released after lawyers and some human rights organizations pleaded for his case, denouncing it as a political trial.
“I welcome this provisional release”, responded Georges Kapiamba, president of the Congolese Association for Access to Justice (ACAJ). Kapiamba said:
We took a stand by writing a letter to the President of the Republic to tell him that this was fundamentally a political trial and that the DRC no longer needs political trials.
The same work must continue to completely defeat the continuation of this lawsuit. We must no longer have political trials in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

In the days and months to come, we will launch our national advocacy program to have our criminal code amended so as to remove all politically motivated offences from our criminal legislation.
Offences of the kind: contempt of the Head of State, attack on the internal and external security of the State and which have become catch-alls for which it is mainly civil and military security services which put themselves in front from the stage, with exorbitant powers that are totally outside our Constitution.
