(AFP) 

KINSHASA — Attackers killed a worker
for an US relief group in eastern Democratic
Republic of Congo and another
was kidnapped, the United Nations said on Friday.

The two Adventist Development and
Relief Agency (ADRA) workers were in
a car that was attacked on September 30
in Sud Kivu province, the UN relief
agency (OCHA) said in a statement.
It did not say who the attackers were.

One man, who was not identified,
was badly beaten up and died at the scene,
the statement said.
The other was abducted
but later managed to escape.

ADRA is run and financed by
the Seventh Day Adventist Church.
