Kamwe Kamwe: Inside Burundi’s Killing Machine - BBC Africa Eye documentary
Former Burundian intelligence agents say that the country’s security services are running secret torture and detention sites to silence dissent. Using cutting edge reconstruction techniques BBC Africa Eye examines one house in particular, which was filmed in a video posted on social media in 2016. A red liquid, which looked like blood, was seen pouring from its gutter. We ask if Burundi’s repression of opponents has now gone underground? The government has always denied any human rights violations, and declined to comment for this report.
A BBC Africa Eye investigation - produced and directed by Charlotte Attwood and Maud Jullien.
Edited by Suzanne Vanhooymissen

The only people who would have enough political power to do that would be the International Criminal Courts ("ICC") and they have no right over crimes committed in Burundi after 26 October 2017. You may argue that Burundi is hiding something by withdrawing from the ICC but that is not our place to speculate, the United States withdrew their signature from the ICC and we don't speculate about a war there etc

@@katherinedouglas-hamilton1773 The Burundi regime remembered the barn door after the horses had already bolted: The ICC had already initiated an inquiry before 10/26/17. If it has the requisite backbone, the court can legally prosecute the crimes committed before that date. And there are more than enough of those.

In this case i would hope that it isnt whats its claimed to be because that is an extreme amount of blood colored water meaning that would be a large amount of people being killed! I always feel extreme sorrow for Africa because of what their government is capable and guilty of... i mean in some parts of Africa Albinos live in fear because they are actively hunted and killed because they are believed to be evil!

To see that I am now 33 yrs old and Africa is still suffering just proves that nothing in this world is ever going to get better, nothing! The ones in control do not want us happy or at peace or to have anything of value! It is only going to get worse from here on out year after year, for everywhere even America is no longer safe.

The terms Hutu and Tutsi are now banned in Rwanda, and the citizens in that country refer to themselves as Rwandese. Of course, Rwanda has a very good leader in President Paul Kagame. I think the assertion in this documentary that the Burundian authorities are attempting to create and exploit division is probably true. The Burundese are smart people, most know that national unity is the first step on the road to progress and development. I hope this will happen for Burundi.

look up kasese humanist school, they are doing positive works in Uganda. Hard working Ugandans bringing up fellow Ugandans. They are not religious, so for those who believe in God they may find that hard to take, but they are genuinely making great strides!
This just makes me think of how gnarly an ancient battlefield would have been. Whole rivers turning red like that is nuts.
Oh Africa, my Africa. What sins have we been cursed with to do each other such harm?

It's not an African curse. It's a human curse.
How was this never made main stream media?
In Africa, we will take hundreds of years for us to value life. This is brutal beyond recognition.
Amazibg editing and sound effects holy shit.

It's good that BBC covered the Face of Whistleblower and gave false alias, but wouldn't it be useless if the reporter reveal his working background as well as who he worked for?. I hope the reporter does a better job at protecting the identity of the whistleblower.
Oh my Africa 💔
late but prayers to friends in Africa 🙏 wish them all better opportunity
It's quite absurd to see such act of inhuman behaviour happening in our societies and we call it democracy
Power is at the hands of the people. Hands used for violence breed only violence. Vote wisely to create a better future.
My heart bleeds for Burundi citizens. May God forgive their sins and heal that land in Jesus name
Should the world let this happen? When a government behaves like this, it becomes a duty of the world to take actions. A man who beheads another human do not deserve to live. I would have sent special forces to kidnap and smugle those criminals out of the country to face justice.

Because it would make things so much worse if another country got involved.
The gikuyu mafias from kenya that were preventing president moi from succeeding jomo kenyatta were also known as ''ngoroka''.

Vice news gives content like BBC... Not Vice, they are 2! They just did one about DRC..
Great job BBC .... it's crazy what people will do to stay in power they cant truly impact those they rule with.
20:50 That sounds like the intro to a farcry or cod game
BBC documentary is one of my favorites.
People are brutal. I sometimes feel evil people are possessed. No human in his right mind can do things like this.
I like and respect report like this
Poor men 😢😢😢

The reason why my country as well as other African countries are in this state and worst is because those that have the knowledge and power to change Africa are currently seated in their comfortable bed somwhere in a western country cowardly complaining about the state of Africa

U are right they talk a lot but they do anything
Tribal intolerance, I hope Kenya is watching. We can't hate our brothers to the extent of killing. It's just wrong. The AU and regional cooperations such as ECOWAS should deploy troops into Burundi. This has to be stopped, it's wrong.
I am not from Burundi, but I have been there a few times. So sad, there was so much promise
