BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) - Cardinal Frederic Etsou-Nzabi-Bamungwabi, Congo's top Roman Catholic prelate who warned of what he called international meddling in the country's recent landmark elections, has died in a Belgian hospital, church officials said Sunday. He was 76.
Etsou, the leader of one of the Congo's most influential institutions, died Saturday in the University Hospital in Leuven, east of Brussels, according to the Scheut Fathers, a Brussels-based missionary order.
He had been staying with the order in the Belgian capital when he was taken to the hospital two weeks ago with pneumonia.
