Albury resident 'crying out' for justice 19 years after surviving horrific massacre in east Africa

Albury resident 'crying out' for justice 19 years after surviving horrific massacre in east Africa

Gedeon Shikiro nursed his massacred community members as they died in his arms at a United Nations refugee camp in Burundi. Nearly 20 years later, he is still fighting for justice.

Key points:

  • Australia's Banyamulenge community has gathered in Albury-Wodonga to commemorate a 2004 massacre

  • An Albury resident survived the massacre but is haunted by a lack of justice for those killed

  • The wider Banyamulenge community is frustrated after a criminal investigation was suspended
