How much should we put our dignity on the line?

True to the old adage, the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) “works in mysterious ways”.The most memorable incident was when the ICTR recently decided to transfer over a dozen convicts to serve their sentences in Mali and Benin without even having the courtesy of informing Rwanda. To make matters worse, the ICTR Registrar had, just a couple of days earlier, held “frank and sincere” talks with Rwanda’s Prosecutor General who was not amused by the shroud of secrecy surrounding the transfers.
