War Crimes and Genocide against the Hutu community living in the nothern region of RDC. Perpetrators: Laurent Nkunda and Paul Kagame
KIGALI (AFP) – Rwanda expelled Germany’s ambassador to Kigali on Tuesday and recalled its own ambassador from Berlin in anger at the arrest of a top Rwandan official in Frankfurt.
“Rwanda’s ambassador to Germany was recalled today for consultations,” Rwandan Information Minister Louise Mushikiwabo told AFP.
“The Rwandan government told the German ambassador to leave within 48 hours until the arrest of Kabuye is resolved.
“The ambassador should leave the country by Thursday,” added Mushikiwabo, who is also the government’s chief spokeswoman.
Rose Kabuye, Rwandan President Paul Kagame’s chief of protocol, was arrested on Sunday by police in Germany — acting on a French warrant — on suspicion of involvement in the killing of Rwanda’s former president Juvenal Habyarimana.
Habyarimana’s killing is widely seen as having triggered the 1994 genocide.
Kabuye’s arrest has sparked outrage among Tutsi extremists in the tiny central African government dopminated by the Tutsi extremists who reacted by issuing indictments and arrest warrants against 23 French military and political officials over their suspected role in the genocide.
On Monday, several thousands demonstrators most of them are believed to be Ibuka members, the RPF organization, marched to the German embassy in the capital Kigali and the offices of the Deutsche Welle, Germany’s national broadcaster. Hutus were forced to join the demonstrations and those who refused to take part in the big show of force were reportedly imprisoned while others were arbitrary arrested and shot to death.

On Tuesday, around a thousand youths demonstrated in front of the French cultural centre in Kigali, which has been closed since Rwanda broke diplomatic ties with France in November 2006.
Officials have said that a demonstration of women could also take place on Wednesday.
Kabuye is the first Rwandan to be arrested out of nine warrants issued by issued by French anti-terrorism judge Jean-Louis Bruguiere in 2006 against close Kagame aides whom the judge suspects of being behind Habyarimana’s death.
reports that hundreds of bodies were found by UN peacekeepers and journalists in the village of Kiwanja, the day after Congolese Tutsi rebels, led by Gen. Laurent Nkunda, attacked the town, which the rebels said contained members of the pro-government Mai-Mai militia.
Kiwanja residents said Mr. Nkunda’s National Congress for the Defence of the People (CNDP) rebels had carried out the killings after taking control of the village.
They knocked on the doors, when the people opened, they killed them with their guns,” said Simo Bramporiki, aged around 60, who said his wife and child were killed last night.
Nkunda denied his men had killed civilians.
But the BBC reports that a spokesman for the Democratic Republic of Congo faulted UN peacekeepers, who have a base near Kiwanja, for failing to stop the attack on the village.
“People are being slaughtered and [UN peacekeepers] did nothing,” a spokesman for President Joseph Kabila said….
Neighbouring Rwanda is also culpable. Its government has repeatedly endorsed various demands of the general, who refuses to register his group as a political movement in Congo, eschewing the UN-sponsored elections there two years ago.
The Truth can be buried and stomped into the ground where none can see, yet eventually it will, like a seed, break through the surface once again far more potent than ever, and nothing can stop it. Truth can be suppressed for a “time”, yet it cannot be destroyed. ==> Wolverine
