Descriptions

Evariste Boshab has also played a part in the exploitation and aggravation of the crisis in the Kasai region, where he maintains a position of influence, in particular since becoming Senator of Kasai in March 2019.

— Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes, 2023-12-21

In his capacity as Vice Prime Minister and Minister of the Interior and Security from December 2014 to December 2016, Evariste Boshab was officially responsible for the police and security services and for coordinating the work of provincial governors. In this capacity, he was responsible for arrests of activists and opposition members, as well as for disproportionate use of force, including between September 2016 and December 2016 in response to demonstrations in Kinshasa, which resulted in a large number of civilians being killed or injured by security services.

Evariste Boshab has therefore been involved in planning, directing or committing acts that constitute serious human rights violations or abuses in the DRC.

— Swiss SECO Sanctions/Embargoes, 2023-12-21

En sa qualité de vice-Premier ministre et ministre de l’intérieur et de la sécurité de décembre 2014 à décembre 2016, Évariste Boshab était officiellement responsable des services de police et de sécurité ainsi que de la coordination du travail des gouverneurs provinciaux. À ce titre, il a été responsable de l’arrestation de militants et de membres de l’opposition, ainsi que d’un recours disproportionné à la force, y compris entre septembre 2016 et décembre 2016, en réponse à des manifestations organisées à Kinshasa, pendant lesquelles de nombreux civils ont été tués ou blessés par les services de sécurité. Évariste Boshab a donc contribué, en les planifiant, dirigeant ou commettant, à des actes constituant de graves violations des droits de l’homme ou de graves atteintes à ces droits en RDC. Évariste Boshab a aussi participé à l’instrumentalisation et à l’aggravation de la crise dans la région du Kasaï, région dans laquelle il conserve une position d’influence, notamment en tant que sénateur du Kasaï depuis mars 2019.
