Top Rwanda Genocide Suspect Arrested

By VOA News
06 October 2009

One of the most wanted suspects from the 1994 Rwandan genocide has been arrested in Uganda.

Ugandan police say Idelphonse Nizeyimana was arrested Monday at a hotel outside the capital, Kampala.

Police say he has been extradited to the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, ICTR, in Tanzania, to face charges of genocide and crimes against humanity.

Prosecutors accuse Nizeyimana, a former army captain and intelligence officer, of helping to organize the genocide in Rwanda＇s Butare province.

His indictment says soldiers acting under his orders took part in the killing of ethnic Tutsis and Hutu moderates. It says he also set up special units to kill the symbolic queen of Rwanda and Tutsi intellectuals.

The United States had offered a $5 million reward for information leading to his arrest.

Ugandan police say Nizeyimana entered Uganda from the Democratic Republic of Congo on October 1 using a forged travel document.

An estimated 800,000 ethnic Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed during the 1994 Rwandan genocide.
