This is the longest established Hutu rebel group independent from CNDD/FDD. There are regional rivalries between the two groups. CNDD members come from the southern Bururi region and PALIPEHUTU are recruited from the central Muramvya area. PALIPEHUTU, led by Cossan Kabura, has had successes in fighting around Bujumbura. Its armed wing is the Forces nationales de liberation (FNL).
