The following week, a series of attacks took place against CNDD-FDD members in Bujumbura’s northern neighborhoods and rural outskirts, areas in which the FNL enjoys strong support. Between January 15 and 18, 2008, an SNR agent and two local CNDD-FDD officials, one of whom was killed—all of them démobilisés—were shot in the Bujumbura neighborhoods of Kinama and Kamenge.[44] The FNL denied responsibility.[45]
