Central African Republic unveils statue in honour of Russia’s Wagner founder Yevgeny Prigozhin

A monument in honour of the late leader of Russia’s mercenary Wagner Group, Yevgeny Prigozhin, has been unveiled in the Central African Republic (CAR).

The statue of Prigozhin, who died in a place crash last year, was installed in the capital Bangui, alongside that of his right-hand man Dmitru Utkin.

The statue shows Prigozhin in bullet-proof clothing holding a walkie-talkie next to his colleague who holds an AK-47 rifle.

Fighters from the Wagner Group have been in CAR since 2018, when they were invited by President Faustin-Archange Touadéra to help tackle rebel groups.
