DR CONGO VOTE RESULTS 'NOT CREDIBLE'

The results of the Democratic Republic of Congo's November elections which were marred by violence and fraud claims were not credible, the European Union's monitoring mission said Thursday.

The mission said the results "were not credible in the light of numerous irregularities and fraud witnessed during the electoral process," in a final report. Results for the presidential ballot were released in late December and returned incumbent Joseph Kabila, who has been in power since 2001.
