I learnt with interest that the German investigators have arrested a former local administration official accused of taking part in the Tutsi Genocide in the north east former province of Byumba.

The fugitive, one Rwabukumba Onesphore, and the former bourgmester of Muvumba Commune which was part of the Byumba prefecture, now part of eastern province was nabbed after a request from Rwanda.

Rwabukumba was holding public office but opted to plan and execute mass killings in his locality and his association with the genocidal government makes him responsible. His arrest thus is a great blessing to all who love humanity.
