” On the way to their office, along the way, they improvised a mask to impose on me.he says to our correspondent, Patient Ligodi. They forced me to put it on. I had no choice. When I got there, in my cell, a group of people came to ask me to put the mask back on. I refused. I thought it was suspicious. They left and came back later to open the cell and abuse me. Honestly, I didn’t understand what happened that day, at that moment, I didn’t understand “.
Jacky Ndala continues: “ They beat me, they assaulted me, they sodomized me. In the morning, I didn’t understand, I didn’t realize. I don’t know if I was drugged, I was hypnotized. I woke up without understanding what was happening. I was in a deplorable state, an incredible humiliation. I left my honor in that cell. But to my great surprise, it is this lady who comes out in a video, making statements boasting of being the one who ordered this action. »

I am not doing it for myself, I did it for many Congolese who may have been there, who do not know how to face this reality. I must denounce these things. Let justice be done! I insist: my honor must be restored. »
