The demonstrators were also demanding the return of the body of Tungulu to Brussels. Armand Tungulu , arrested for throwing a stone at President Joseph Kabila's convoy was found dead on October 2, 2010 in his republican guard cell and is held to have "committed suicide", a legal source said on October 4. "Preliminary investigations suggest" that Armand Tungulu, aged 30, "must have committed suicide on the night of October 1 to October 2 (...) with the help of a cloth he was using for a pillow," said a statement from the chief prosecutor's office of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Tungulu, who normally lives in Belgium and had been in Kinshasa for a short while, was arrested on Wednesday and "beaten up" by the president's bodyguards, after throwing a stone at the cortege in the city centre, according to the African Association for the Defence of Human Rights (Asadho).
