Édouard Mwangachuchu Hizi (born 30 September 1953) is a Congolese businessman and politician.
[1] In November 2020 he asked Minister of Mines, Willy Kitobo Samsoni [fr], for explanations regarding the tensions in Kivu.
[3] The case started after a cachement of weapons was found on an SMB site in the wake of an M23 offensive and counteroffensive in Rubaya.
[5] On 6 October 2023, the High Military Court, chaired by Robert Kalala, sentenced Mwangachuchu to death for those charges and "illegal possession of weapons and munitions of war".
[3] His lawyer claimed that Mwangachuchu suffered from a ruling "based on ethnic harassment against Kinyarwanda-speaking people in North Kivu" and was medically maltreated.
