Part of Congo's Supreme Court was burnt on Tuesday (21 November 2006) as judges reviewed electoral fraud complaints filed by supporters of presidential contender Jean-Pierre Bemba. The session was immediately suspended. It is unclear who started the fire, but police fired shots into the air to disperse Bemba supporters demanding to enter the court building.
