JOHANNESBURG - Police are reluctant to say whether there are any
suspects in the murder of former Rwandan Intelligence boss, Patrick
Karegeya.
That's despite media reports that Karegeya was meeting an old friend
when he was killed.
Karegeya's body was found in a room at the Michelangelo Towers in
Sandton on Wednesday.
Karegeya's colleagues in the opposition Rwanda National Congress
firmly believe his death was neither accidental, nor random.
His friend and fellow exile Kayumba Nyamwasa was nearly killed in an
assignation attempt in 2010 shortly after arriving in South Africa.
He believes the trail of blood in the Karegeya murder leads directly
to Rwandan president Paul Kagame.
"I have agreed to this interview so that it can be on record for
everybody to know that we have got a regime in Rwanda whose policy is
to kill and after killing to deny."
The Rwandan government has rubbished claims that it has had a hand in
Karegeya's murder.
"That is an emotional reaction and an opportunistic way of playing
politics. South Africa is an organised country. There is police," said
Rwandan High Commissioner Vincent Karega.
"A hotel is in a posh area with all the security features. I think the
wise way is to wait for the police to establish.
"Otherwise Karegeya has been here for more than five years now. Why
just now and why in a hotel?"
Nyamwasa believes the man who Karegeya was due to meet at the hotel,
could be key to piecing together what happened.
"The person with whom Patrick was meeting had come from Rwanda. He was
a friend for a very long time.
"Even when Patrick was incarcerated and other people in Rwanda would
not be able to visit him, this particular individual would go to visit
him," said Nyamwasa.
"So the trust built from that situation. But the very fact that we
found Patrick in a hotel room dead when he was with him, and the
person cannot be traced."
Police are refusing to say whether this man is a suspect.
