Two Rwandan dissidents who had been granted refugee status in Uganda
have mysteriously disappeared, sparking suspicion that they could have
been kidnapped and taken back to Rwanda where they are wanted for
trial by the government.
Mr Charles Sande, a captain in Rwandan Defence Forces and former
military signaler of Defence Minister Gen James Kabareebe and Mr
Christopher Busigo, who was a pastor in Rwanda, went missing on
Monday.
Mr Sande's wife told Saturday Monitor that her husband left home
saying he was going to meet a friend in town but never returned.
"He was always living in hiding because of harassment from the Rwandan
intelligence operatives who were trailing him. His phones have been
off since then," she said.
Mr Sande and Mr Busigo are reported to be among the seven refugees the
Rwanda government wanted extradited to Kigali to stand trial for
crimes they allegedly committed before they fled the country. Their
lawyer, Mr Ladislus Rwakafuzi, said yesterday that the two Rwandan
nationals had told him they feared for their lives.
Mr Sande and Mr Busigo have been friends and were always moving
together. Two week ago, the UNHCR in Geneva protested the request by
Rwanda to have the refugees extradited. When contacted, the Rwandan
Ambassador in Uganda, Maj Gen Frank Mugambagye, said he could not
discuss issues of refugees on phone.
