BRAZZAVILLE, Jan 11 (Reuters) - Congo Republic said on Thursday a French court decision to reopen an investigation into an alleged massacre in the African country could seriously harm cooperation ties with its former colonial ruler.

"The interference of the French judiciary...could cause, if it is not checked, a serious deterioration in cooperation relations between France and Congo," the government said in a statement.
