A Congolese refugee was killed in Rio, Brazilians take to the streets to protest the brutal killing

Al Jazeera, 06 Feb 2022
Thousands of protesters have rallied across Brazil biggest cities against the murder of a 24-year old refugee from the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Moise Kabagambe, who used to work in a kiosk on the beach near President Jair Bolsonaro’s home, was asking for two days of unpaid wages.
CCTV footage showed a group of men tying him to a post and beating to death with fists, feet and sticks.
The brutal killing incensed Brazilians, and they say Bolsonaro - who will run for a second term this year - isn’t doing enough.
