A major conservation charity linked to Prince Harry has admitted that human rights abuses were committed by its rangers in Congo-Brazzaville, following an independent review into allegations made by members of the Baka community against African Parks rangers.
In a report published last year by the British newspaper the Mail on Sunday, community members accused African Parks rangers of beating, waterboarding and raping locals to stop them from accessing their ancestral forests, which are now in a conservation area.
BBC (https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cq54dgv2p29o?xtor=AL-71-%5Bpartner%5D-%5Bbbc.news.twitter%5D-%5Bheadline%5D-%5Bnews%5D-%5Bbizdev%5D-%5Bisapi%5D&at_campaign=Social_Flow&at_ptr_name=twitter&at_link_type=web_link&at_link_id=24630F7A-2C3A-11F0-9C56-D983D6A6D14E&at_link_origin=BBCNews&at_format=link&at_bbc_team=editorial&at_medium=social&at_campaign_type=owned)
Yes, a truly disgraceful state of affairs and African Parks should severely punish the rangers involved.
However, the Sunday Mail wouldn't have bothered reporting this if Harry hadn't been involved. Harry is a board member, he didn't found African Parks, he is one member on their Board, and as soon as Survival sent him its report he sent it to the Chairman of the Board to be investigated. He didn't know whether that complaint was true or false. What was he supposed to have done? Gone as an investigator himself?
To read the Fail one could draw the conclusion that Harry himself knew and carried out all these outrages. Perhaps Survival, which has an anti 'Colonial' agenda in all this, can take over African Parks, mould it the way they want, continue to gather millions in donations from wealthy US billionaires and see how they manage.
