Sources say that when a coalition of forces fighting alongside the DRC government re-entered Uvira last month—after M23 had withdrawn from the city—foreign mercenaries under Prince’s leadership were among those accompanying the coalition. These mercenaries have reportedly been seen for some time in ongoing fighting in the surrounding highland areas.

The same sources allege that Prince was arrested at a hotel in the Muchepe area, together with soldiers assigned to his security, before being taken to an undisclosed location.

    It’s good that he’s experiencing a thousandth of a percent of the punishment he deserves but I also feel bad that the DRC has to be the one to hold him. I don’t want him back in the US but I don’t think it’s fair for the DRC to have to carry that burden.

    In a just word he would be facing trial in Iraq for his crimes but Iraq would get leaned on very hard by the US and probably also Iran (so that they don’t start shit) so they wouldn’t do it
