On 12 November 1999, Lambert Djunga Shango, Pierre Risasi, Okumbo and Dada Feza Rukeratabaro were acquitted due to insufficient evidence. Amnesty International has no further information, however, of Bukasa Musenga, Gaby Ngimbi Kiamba, Muzaliwa Maroy, Issa Yuba and Onza Kanda, who were sentenced to death by the Military Order Court on 19 October after it found them guilty of stealing fuel from the military.
