Inception of the process

The situation recently took a turn for the worst, with the killing of a Muslim motorcycle taxi driver, which initiated the recent chaos in Bangui and started to threaten the fragile peace process initiated since last year. Residents claimed that the body of the taxi driver was discovered near a mosque in Bangui. The man was mutilated and killed due to his religious beliefs.

Human Rights Watch organized the ceremony attributing the renowned Alison Des Forges Prize which pays tribute to a few remarkable activists who have devoted their lives to the defence of human rights.
