Editor,The move by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR), this week, to refer to Rwanda another case of an indicted Genocide suspect who remains at large is commendable.Over the last 17 years, the Rwandan judicial system has undergone various reforms, putting it at par with international standards. Therefore, there is no evidence to suggest that the suspects if sent back to Kigali would not receive fair trial.For instance, I have been interacting with the Office of the Prosecutor General, lately, and must state that several members of the judiciary have received intensive training, both at school and on-the-job.I am sure; they have now the capacity to deliver justice, professionally without bias.Suspects living in various countries have continued to argue that, if extradited, they would not receive a fair trial. This is just an excuse to run away from justice. Honestly, that excuse has gradually become obsolete.Eugene RulisaKigali
