Editor,The French have put themselves in a veritable twist: can’t give her asylum because they, more than anyone else, know she is guilty as hell of the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi and probably a Lady Macbeth to boot for the murder of her husband.

But can’t try her either or extradite her to Rwanda to face trial as a spurned Kanziga might begin to sing like a canary and spill the beans (sorry about the mixed metaphors) about their own role. Huh, truly a horn of a dilemma for Paris, for whom this woman’s continued residence (as well as the many other genocidaires) on French territory is a running reminder to the world of that infamous French hand in the Genocide. I almost feel their pain.Mwene Kalinda, Kigali, RwandaReaction to the story, "Top French court rejects Agathe’s asylum request”, (The New Times, June 7)
