Rwanda arrest warrant for genocide suspect in France

Rwanda has issued an international arrest warrant for a former senior Rwandan military official, Aloys Ntiwiragabo, who is under investigation in France for his alleged role in the country’s 1994 genocide.

France opened a probe after a French publication, Mediapart, found Mr Ntiwiragabo in the city of Orleans.

He had been identified by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) as one of the architects of the genocide.

Neither the ICTR, Interpol, France nor Rwanda were actively seeking him, having dropped arrest warrants years earlier.

The revelation of Mr Ntiwiragabo’s whereabouts came barely two months after another suspected genocide architect, Felicien Kabuga, was arrested on the fringes of Paris.
