Rwandan spy chief Karenzi Karake arrested in London

[kiambasabo]

Hv tuache unafiki.hao hispania wao ndio nani? Walikuwa wapi wakati wa vita rwanda? Walifanya nini kuzuia massacre rwanda??
Kumkamata huyo kiongozi kuna sema ndio kutatua matatizo yetu?
Je na sisi waafrica tunaweza kuingilia au kumkamata kiongozi mzungu kwa makosa ya uhali wa kivita au uhali wa aina yeyote.
This is non sense. Namshauri kagame asirudi nyuma kwenye hili and he needs to retaliate on this stupid act.
Hata africa tuna heshima na hadhi yetu.

Hz ndizo fikra za mwafrika anayejitambua.

Mimi ningekuwa kagame,nitawazuia wageni wote na interest za wahispani ndani ya rwanda na nje ya rwanda.Who are these people anyways?
sisemi kagama hana makosa,ila he is my african brother,kwenye hili siwezi kuunga mkono wajinga wahispani na waingereza.to hell with them.

Mkuu Victor wa happy hili jambo wala haliitaji akili nyingi kulichambua.

Ni hivi wahutu ndio walikuwa wanaongoza serekali,watutsi wakapigana vita hadi wakafanikiwa kuchukua madaraka ya kuongoza nchi.Kwa hiyo tunakubaliana bila ubishi katika mapigano ya kupigania kuchukua hatamu za nchi pande zote mbili zilipoteza wanajeshi,mgambo na raia.

Kinachoshnagaza sasa ni kwanini mauaji hayo yamewafuta wahutu kwamba waliouwawa ni watutsi pekee yake ?.Mama Igambire aliuliza hili swali akaishiwa kufungwa na majaji wa Kagame.Jumuiya ya kimataifa ipo inaangalia kinachoendelea Kigali pasipo kuchukua hatua stahiki.Jumuiya ya Ulaya wameanza soon dunia itajua upande wa pili.

Nimeshangaa sana AU inashinikiza KK aachiwe bila kujali alishiriki mauaji au lah.Uhalifu wa serekali ya KK sasa umekufanywa hoja ya Afrika na soon itakuwa ndio ajenga ya EAC msipowakubalia wabunge wa Rwanda watakuwa wakitoka nje hadi ajenda yao ibebwe na itolewe tamko la kulaani.

Naona umeamua kukumbatia ujinga laiti ungetumia akili kiduchu ungeweza kuendelea na mnakasha na mimi.Tunakubaliana katika vita lazima wanaoshinda na wanaoshindwa wanapoteza wanajeshi,mgambo na raia hili sidhani kama linahitaji mjadala mzito.Kwahiyo watutsi walikufa na wahutu pia walikufa,inawezekana watutsi walikufa wengi na wahutu walikufa wachache lakini hilo haliondoi uhalali kwamba makabila haya mawili yalipoteza watu kupitia vita hivyo haramu.

Ninachokiona sasa hakina tofauti na wakati serekali ya Kigali ilipokuwa chini ya wahutu wengi.PK anafanya kile kile kilichokuwa kikifanywa na serekali ya Habyarimana kugandamiza watutsi sasa Kagame kaingia anagandamza wahutu usifikiri hii hali itaendelea moja kwa moja lazima watainuka watu au mtu wa kukataa unyanyasaji wa Kagame na genge lake la wauaji.

wewe mnywa gongo kama jina lako unatakiwa uwe jela kama huyo ingabire unayemtetea,to compare RPF na interahamwe wenzako is like day and night ndio maana wenye akili hawawezi kuwasikiliza hao ndugu zako wauaji na nina kuhakikishia angekamatwa one of your interahamwe in the wanted list AU wangetoa tamko la kupongeza hiyo arrest,dawa yenu ni kufanya alichofanya na anachoendelea kufanya Paul Kagame....big up kagame na lazima akomeshe mbuzi hawa.

The Rwandan spy chief arrested in London on suspicion of orchestrating revenge massacres in the wake of his country’s genocide is also implicated in the killings of two Britons, The Independent can reveal.

General Karenzi Karake, who is the head of Rwanda’s intelligence service, was detained on a European Arrest Warrant (EAW) at Heathrow Airport on Saturday by Scotland Yard officers acting on a Spanish indictment accusing him of organising attacks that led to thousands of deaths following his comrades’ intervention to halt the 1994 genocide of 800,000 people.

The Rwandan authorities - and former International Development Secretary Andrew Mitchell - condemned Gen Karake’s detention. Louise Mushikiwabo, Rwanda’s foreign minister described the arrest of the general, who it is understood has been a regular visitor to London despite being the subject of an EAW since 2008, as an “outrage”.
But the lawyer acting for relatives of three Spanish aid workers killed in the massacres told The Independent investigators had built a comprehensive case against the general and 38 other Rwandan officials for crimes including the alleged murders of two British nationals in the aftermath of the genocide.

The Spanish indictment names Chris Mannion, a British Catholic missionary shot dead in 1994, and Graham Turnbull, an aid worker and observer with the UN High Commission for Refugees killed in 1997, among foreign nationals who were targeted alongside thousands of Rwandan Hutus in the aftermath of the genocide, during which ethnic Tutsis and moderate Hutus were massacred wholesale by Hutu extremists.

Gen Karake, 54, who has been remanded in custody pending extradition to Spain, was head of the Directorate of Military Intelligence (DMI) of the Tutsi-led Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) which invaded to bring a halt to the mass murder in 1994. But he is accused by a Spanish judge of then playing a key role in a subsequent campaign to tighten the RPF’s grip on power by attacking fleeing Hutus and aid workers.

Jordi Palou-Loverdos, who is representing the Spanish victims, said: “The evidence is that General Karake was himself involved in the organisation of these killings - of Rwandans, Congolese, Spanish, Britons and others - as the head of the DMI between 1994 and 1997.

“There was a targeting of missionaries and in 1997 of foreign aid organisations, including UN agencies, to force them to leave western Rwanda, where most of the killings were happening. We have many protected witnesses who have said very, very clearly that the instructions for this came from the top [of the DMI].”

Scotland Yard declined to say whether it had investigated Gen Karake in connection with the deaths of Mr Mannion or Mr Turnbull, which at the time were blamed on Hutu militias trying to destabilise the RPF government led by President Paul Kagame, who was previously feted by the West but is now widely criticised as autocratic. Mr Kagame counts former Prime Minister Tony Blair among his supporters.

General Karenzi Karake has been remanded in custody pending extradition to Spain (Getty) Senior figures in the Rwandan government reacted with barely-concealed fury to the arrest of Gen Karake, who is currently director general of Rwanda’s National Intelligence and Security Services (NISS), equivalent to the combined head of Britain’s MI5 and MI6.
Williams Nkurunziza, the Rwandan high commissioner to the UK, told the BBC: “We take strong exception to the suggestion that he’s being arrested on war crimes. Any suggestion that any of our 40 leaders are guilty of crimes against humanity is an insult to our collective conscience.”
Mr Mitchell, who worked closely with Mr Kagame and his government while in office, cast doubt on the accuracy of the Spanish indictment, which was criticised in leaked American diplomatic cables, and said the allegations had arisen from supporters of Rwanda’s previous genocidal regime.
He said: “These are politically motivated. They are not about justice, they are about politics. Let’s be very clear, they are being pursued by supporters of the genocidal regime which murdered up to one million people in Rwanda.”

Former International Development Secretary, Andrew Mitchell (Getty)
The detention of Gen Karake, known by the nickname of KK, is politically difficult for Britain, which has been a close ally of Rwanda and is its single largest donor of international aid. A spokesman for Prime Minister David Cameron said that the arrest was arrest was an “operational matter” for police.
While many suspected genocide suspects have been arrested abroad, including four men in Britain currently awaiting extradition, it is thought that the general is the first RPF figure to be detained on charges relating to the genocide.
Relations between London and Kigali have deteriorated in recent months following the broadcast of a BBC documentary which examined claims that the 1994 genocide was provoked by Mr Kagame and the Tutsi death toll exaggerated. The Rwandans accused the BBC of genocide denial and subsequently banned its broadcasts in Rwanda.
Both supporters and pursuers of the general expressed surprised at the timing of the arrest of the spy chief, who is understood to have been in Britain at least half a dozen times since the issuing of the EAW on behalf of a Spanish judge in 2008.

The Independent understands that the Metropolitan Police may have acted to arrest Gen Karake, who had been in London for a week, following an approach from a campaign group, the Global Campaign for Rwandan Human Rights. Rene Mugenzi, the head of the group who was previously formally warned by the Yard that he was the target of a potential assassination by Rwandan agents, said: “It is a huge relief that Karake has been detained. It is hopefully the beginning of a process that will lead to justice for thousands of Rwandans.”
The Spanish authorities said they were in the process of forwarding the necessary documentation concerning Gen Karake’s alleged crimes to London ahead of a full extradition hearing at a future date.
Mr Palou-Loverdos said he did not know what had persuaded the British authorities to act last week on the EAW. He said: “I think I would say it is better late than never. We do not know what happens behind the scenes.”

The British victims

Chris Mannion, 43, missionary
When a request came from the Rome headquarters of Mr Mannion's missionary order - the Marist Religious Institution - to travel to Rwanda to come to aid of his confreres caught in the tumult of the 1994 genocide, he did not hesitate. The British-born missionary was heading for the small Catholic mission of Save in southern Rwanda under escort from a detachment of French peacekeepers on 1 July 1994. But when the vehicle carrying the French soldiers got stuck in mud, Mr Mannion and colleague went ahead. Their vehicle was attacked by unidentified gunmen and both men were killed. His colleagues said he had paid with his life so his fellow missionaries could survive.

Graham Turnbull, 34, aid worker
A longstanding aid worker, Mr Turnbull was part of a group of four workers with the United Nations High Commission for Refugees working close to Rwanda's border with the Democratic Republic of Congo when their vehicle was ambushed on 4 February 1997. Even by the standards of the violence that had convulsed Rwanda, the attack was brutal. Mr Turnbull was shot dead while a Cambodian colleague was beheaded with a machete. The attack led to the temporary withdrawal hundreds of UN and other NGO workers from western Rwanda and is now alleged in the Spanish indictment to have been orchestrated by the Rwandan government to conceal revenge attacks on Hutus.

Naona umeamua kukumbatia ujinga laiti ungetumia akili kiduchu ungeweza kuendelea na mnakasha na mimi.Tunakubaliana katika vita lazima wanaoshinda na wanaoshindwa wanapoteza wanajeshi,mgambo na raia hili sidhani kama linahitaji mjadala mzito.Kwahiyo watutsi walikufa na wahutu pia walikufa,inawezekana watutsi walikufa wengi na wahutu walikufa wachache lakini hilo haliondoi uhalali kwamba makabila haya mawili yalipoteza watu kupitia vita hivyo haramu.

Ninachokiona sasa hakina tofauti na wakati serekali ya Kigali ilipokuwa chini ya wahutu wengi.PK anafanya kile kile kilichokuwa kikifanywa na serekali ya Habyarimana kugandamiza watutsi sasa Kagame kaingia anagandamza wahutu usifikiri hii hali itaendelea moja kwa moja lazima watainuka watu au mtu wa kukataa unyanyasaji wa Kagame na genge lake la wauaji.

kwa hiyo bado mmekaa? mtainuka lini sasa na wenzenu kina jMali ? tuko tunawasubili kwa hamu mje na hiyo mi bichwa yenu iliyojaa kamasi na sumu, mnataka kuzinguwa watu wakati toka mchukue nchi kutoka kwa mkoloni mpaka 94 ilikuwa bado inazidiwa na Kibondo kwa kina MOTOCHINI yaani wenyewe cha maana mlichofanya ni kuuwa Raia wenu wa kitutsi... what a legacy!

Rwanda's Butchers: the Interahamwe and Former Rwandan Army

​

Special Report No 13
Military history will record the Interahamwe and allied Rwandan soldiers uniquely. Back in April 1994, they achieved a dramatic tactical success, while failing entirely in their strategic vision. When faced with having to share power both with a Tutsi guerrilla movement (RPF) and with moderate Hutu politicians, their leaders decided that if they could just eliminate both elements they could stay in power. Over the ensuing weeks, they and their followers successfully managed to kill about 800,000 people, including nearly all of Rwanda's moderate Hutu political activists and at least half of the country's then-resident Tutsi population. Yet, they still lost the war.

Today, the propensity of the surviving Interahamwe and former Rwandan Army elements to carry out seemingly irrational acts of terrorism should not be underestimated. Even before they embarked on genocide, these same forces were responsible for a wave of bombings of civilian markets as well as landmines left on rural roads. These killed mostly their own fellow Hutus in the cynical hope that Hutu survivors would blame these attacks on Tutsis.
Isolated now in the jungles of central Zaire, the Interahamwe and former Rwandan forces have nowhere to go. Collective starvation, like death from disease, is a palpable scenario. These forces are unlikely to allow any of the civilians still travelling with them to leave. And they still may have access to funds from radical supporters in the diaspora, and could use them to buy arms either through or from the Zairian Army. And unlike the latter, the Interahamwe and former Rwandan combatants now have nothing to lose by fighting.

The Interahamwe and their allies are well-supplied with small arms, including Kalashnikov, R-4 and Belgian FN assault rifles, FN MAG Belgian machine guns, RPG-7 grenade launchers, hand grenades, and mortars. These forces have also used landmines and South African No 2 mines modeled upon the US Claymore.
