[RwandaLibre] Re: Commission d'enquête US au Rwanda.

Voici quelques informations que j'ai pu obtenir sur la délégation US
qui séjourne au Rwanda:

De son vrai nom James Mountain "Jim" Inhofe, je pense que la
délégation US conduite par le sénateur James Inhofe provient d'une
autre mission de l'Uganda. Il semble que son fils est mort dans un
accident d'avion en novembre 2013:

Senator Jim Inhofe's son, Perry Inhofe, has died in a plane crash, the
U.S. Secretary of Defense confirmed on Monday. The 51-year-old
orthopedic surgeon was killed when his twin-engine aircraft crashed in
a wooded area about 5 miles north of Oklahoma's Tulsa International
Airport on Sunday, Tulsa World reports. Inhofe's plane was on a
43-minute flight to Tulsa from Salina, Kansas when it went down,
according to FlightAware. Air traffic controllers reported the plane
experienced engine failure. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel expressed
his condolences in a statement released Monday. "My thoughts and
prayers are with Jim and Kay and their family as they mourn this
terrible loss," he said.[Tulsa World]

Sen Jim Inhofe Heading To Uganda; Will He Speak Against The
Anti-Homosexuality Bill?

January 16, 2014 By Warren Throckmorton Leave a Comment

According to a tweet from Maria Burnett at Human Rights Watch Sen. Jim
Inhofe (R-OK) is heading to Uganda. From sources I trust, I have
learned that Inhofe and a Congressional delegation will be in Uganda
next week.

.@Inhofe should publicly state he does not support the "odious" #AHB
during his trip to #Uganda. http://t.co/TVvxqE5aff @maddow

— Maria Burnett (@MariaHRWAfrica) January 15, 2014

Inhofe (@jiminhofe) has stated in the U.S. that he opposes the
Anti-Homosexuality Bill, but will he bring up his opposition when he
meets with Uganda's president Museveni? My guess is that regional
security issues will dominate the meetings but I hope Inhofe and his
delegation will communicate that yhey oppose the human rights disaster
in the making in Uganda.

I will add information here as I get it.

Agnès et Faustin,

Vous avez déjà entendu que le Labour en Grande Bretagne mène une
enquête sur les assassinats dont la responsabilité pèse sur le régime
de Kagame. Et ce en conséquence de fortes aides que ce pays donne au
régime de Kigali. C'est le fonctionnement normal des démocraties
occidentales de demander des comptes en cas de telles accusations:
parlementaires, sénateurs et législateurs recueillent et recoupent les
informations avant de prendre les mesures qui s'imposent.

Sur la photo que j'ai envoyée, vous voyez que la délégation
s'entretient avec Kagame en aparté. Ensuite ils parlent des mêmes
sujets en aparté avec James Kabarebe et d'autres responsables du FPR.
C'est une des techniques d'enquête pour retracer les contradictions
sur leurs déclarations.

Vue la sensibilité du sujet, le chantage du régime avec ses missions
de la paix, les enquêteurs se font discrets sur la place publique. Une
chose est sûre, une fois leur rapport bouclé, les mesures seront
prises en conséquence.

[RwandaLibre] The Hague / The Netherlands: Protest Rally in Support of Ms. Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza, January 25, 2014

 


The Hague / The Netherlands: Protest Rally in Support of Ms. Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza, January 25, 2014

JANUARY 25, 2014  
The Hague, The Netherlands, January 25, 2014.
Press Release: Protest Rally in Support of Ms. Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza
Dear Members of FDU- INKINGI
Dear Friends of the platform FDU INKINGI – IHURIRO RNC – AMAHORO PC
Distinguished Representatives of political parties PDP-IMANZI, PDR- IHUMURE, PS- IMBERAKURI
Mr. the Coordinator of CLIIR and all Representatives of the Civil Society
Dear Supporters of FDU- INKINGI
Rwandans,
Dear Friends of Rwanda,
Dear All, in your respective honors and functions,
On behalf of the political party FDU- Inkingi, we thank you all for your presence at this public protest rally in support of our party Chair, Ms. Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza, who was sentenced to 15 years in prison by the political justice of the Rwandan regime.

Our first words will therefore go to our party Chair, who has been unjustly convicted. We all came here to show her our support and to assure her that even though she is momentarily and physically prevented from leading this struggle for democracy and empowerment of our people, the struggle we all started together, we will continue the fight to which we have all pledged until the total conquest of our rights and freedoms and the total liberation of the Rwandan people from the yoke of dictatorship under which they have been languishing for nearly two decades.

This protest rally was planned long before the murder of a comrade in struggle, late Col. Patrick Karegeya, who was killed in South Africa during the night of December 31st leading to January 1st by the Rwandan regime, by President Paul Kagame himself, given the fact that he has already self-confessed to the crime at the Prayer Breakfast which was held on January 12, 2014 in Kigali. We therefore take this opportunity to bow to the memory of a comrade in struggle, and pay tribute to a friend. Patrick Karegeya has given his life; he has shed his blood for our ideals of democracy and of our living together in harmony as Rwandans, regardless of our ethnic, regional, religious and social origins, for the right of memory and the duty of memory for all victims of the Rwandan slaughter of 1990-2000. We invite you to observe a moment of silence in memory of Patrick Karegeya. Dear friend Patrick, your blood that was shed is the leaven for our liberty and our victory.

Our thoughts also go to our other party comrades who have been unjustly convicted of the crime of having held a political meeting in a private place and of having attended the trial hearing of our party Chair. We think especially of our comrade, Sylvain Sibomana, our party Secretary General who, on January 13, 2014, was sentenced to 6 years in prison, in addition to the previous sentence of 2 years in prison. Mr. Sibomana was indeed among the first comrades who joined Ms. Ingabire immediately upon her arrival in Rwanda on January 16, 2010, after 16 years of exile in The Netherlands. Other comrades such as Anselm Mutuyimana, Venant Abayisenga, Emmanuel Byukusenge, Leonille Gasengayire, Jenny Flora Irakoze, Marcel Nahimana, Samuel Hitimana, Tuganemungu, Christian Norbert Ufitamahoro, Valens Uwiringiyimana, and Venuste Uwiringiyimana are languishing in prison. Ms. Jenny Flora Irakoze is currently wandering in inside or outside exile.

We have also organized this public protest rally to give thanks to the family of Ms. Victoire Ingabire because her family has endured so many sacrifices and is now deprived of a wife, a mother and a child. Dear Lin, with all yours, we just say thank you.

Our party Chair has been sentenced to 15 years in prison. We will not wait for her to purge such a heavy and unjust sentence before she can recover her freedom. We will use all possible political pressures so that she can be released at the earliest. Ms. Victoire Ingabire has informed us about her intention to appeal to the African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights. Upon the receipt of the copy of the judgment, we will carefully examine it and let her know our recommendations as a political party. Ultimately, it will be up to Ms. Victoire Ingabire to follow through our recommendations or not. We have also thought of other possibilities such as the United Nations Commission for Human Rights. The judicial process is one way among many others. However, having been imprisoned for political reasons, we cannot rule out that it is the same political reasons that will liberate Ms. Victoire Ingabire. We will therefore continue to deploy in such political processes.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

If our comrade, Ms. Victoire Ingabire was stripped of her freedom, it was of course because of the police and the justice system that are under the orders the Rwandan regime. Such a politicized and political justice system is supported politically and financially by a country, which also happens to be the country of adoption for our party Chair. We meant to name The Netherlands.

We are here before the Dutch Parliament, an institution that represents the sovereign people of The Netherlands, to send three strong messages to the Parliament and through it, the Government and the Dutch people:

First, the Dutch taxpayers' money that is supporting Rwanda's police and justice system kills because it contributes to assassinate political opponents and independent journalists that are even being haunted down across Rwandan borders. The most recent case concerns the murder of our comrade late Col. Patrick Karegeya who was killed poisoned and strangled in South Africa by Rwandan secret services. Among many others, we would like to cite, Mugabo Manasseh, Seth Sendashonga, Augustin Bugirimfura, Emmanuel Munyemanzi, Theoneste Lizinde, Assiel Kabera, Augustin Cyiza, Eleazar Runyaruka, Leonard Hitimana, Andre Kagwa Rwisereka, Charles Ingabire, and Jean-Leonard Rugambage. The list is long.

Second, the Dutch taxpayers' money in Rwanda is not only used to build a justice that is controlled by the regime but also to create a machine that imprisons political opponents. To date, all of the leaders of the opposition political parties in Rwanda are in prison because the regime in place would like to prevent these leaders from holding public offices, including access to the presidency. These leaders include the FDU-Inkingi's Chair Victoire Ingabire, the PDP-Imanzi's Chairman Deo Mushayidi, and the PS-Imberakuri's President Bernard Ntaganda who are all languishing in prison.

Third, the Dutch taxpayers' money in Rwanda is used to erect legal walls and administrative obstacles to the registration of opposition political parties to prevent them from normally contributing to the expression of suffrage, the rise of civil liberties and the anchoring of a democratic debate. That's why until now, only political parties that are subservient to the system are the only ones that are formally registered not to mention the current law on political parties in Rwanda which with its multitude of penalties constitutes in itself a second penal code.

Fourth, we are here to ask the Dutch Government to halt its plans aimed at extraditing to Rwanda for judgment a large number of Rwandans that are accused of allegedly having participated in the 1994 genocide. Without prejudging the guilt or the innocence of our compatriots, we would like to draw the Dutch government's attention on the fact that the country where these individuals risk being sent cannot guarantee them to receive a fair trial. Indeed, Rwanda is a country where its leaders are accused of serious crimes against humanity, war crimes and massive violations of the international humanitarian law. The highest authorities of the state that also have control over the justice system, are accused in the UN Mapping Report of having committed a possible genocide against the Hutu refugees in DRC. According to the report of the group of UN experts on the DRC, the Rwandan authorities are accused of forced recruitment of child soldiers, rapes and direct support to the M23 rebels.

We ask the Dutch Government to prosecute such individuals in The Netherlands if the evidence of their guilt is proven. At the same time, we would like to tell our compatriots that are being sued: do not let yourselves be sheared off, stand up, come out from that torpor in which you are immersed and claim your rights. Indeed, no one else will do it for you. Shake it up, defend yourself and let the Dutch public opinion know about your situation.
To conclude, we would like to thank you all once again for coming to show your solidarity with our comrade Ms. Victoire Ingabire, and through her, with all of our comrades that are unjustly imprisoned in Rwanda. Thanks to all of you FDU-Inkingi activists in Rwanda and abroad, for your commitment and sacrifices. Our next protest rally will be held on February 22, 2014 in Brussels, Belgium, in front of the European Parliament. Together, with determination, we shall set them free!

Dr. Nkiko Nsengimana
Coordinator, FDU-Inkingi

[RwandaLibre] Washington Post: Why Is the US Funding Rwanda's Deadly Regime?

Another Rwandan dissident assassinated

By Lara Santoro,

Lara Santoro is the author of two novels. She covered Rwanda for the
Christian Science Monitor and Newsweek from 1997 to 2003.

Patrick Karegeya's murder did not come as a surprise. The former
Rwandan spymaster, whose network of spooks at one point spanned half a
continent, had fallen foul of President Paul Kagame in 2007 and went
on to help found the opposition, headquartered in South Africa. But as
human rights organizations keep noting, the survival rate among
Rwanda's dissidents is not high .

The country that many in the West associate with brave recovery from
genocide in the 1990s has, in the years since, turned into an
autocratic state with zero tolerance for dissent. Filip Reynt­jens, a
leading academic authority on Rwanda, says the central African country
is no longer "a state with an army but an army with a state." It's a
depressing transformation, although true plurality was unlikely to
blossom in that country, with a 15 percent ethnic minority effectively
in charge.

What did come as a surprise was the way Karegeya was murdered. His
strangled body was found in a Johannesburg hotel room Jan. 1. The
killers didn't even bother to tidy up: They left the rope and a
bloodied towel behind, as well as a "do not disturb" sign on the door.
"It's Kagame's impunity,"
Theogene Rudasingwa, a former Rwandan ambassador to the United States
and one of the leaders of the Rwandan opposition in exile, said in an
interview. "He doesn't care anymore, no one has ever held him
accountable, so why should he care?"

Kagame has denied involvement in the murder, but at a recent prayer
meeting in the Rwandan capital he said, "You cannot expect to betray
your country and get away with it." Aside from a brief statement by
the South African police mentioning strangulation, the circumstances
of Karegeya's death remain mysterious. What is clear, however, is that
no one had greater interest in seeing Karegeya dead than Kagame.
Experts on the region say that Karegeya's job description under Kagame
included eliminating enemies — potential and actual — which left
Karegeya with a lot of sensitive information. "It was pretty clear to
everyone what Karegeya's job was," professor Brian Endless of Loyola
University said in an interview just after the murder. "Even he wasn't
terribly shy about it. He took care of dissidents, in however
distasteful a fashion was required."

When someone was deemed a problem outside Rwanda — be it in Kenya,
Congo or other countries — it was Karegeya's job to get rid of them.
(Internally, the job fell to Jack Nziza, whom Rudasingwa called "the
most feared man in Rwanda").

Whatever "problems" Karegeya allegedly eliminated at Kagame's behest
is unknown, but Endless and others have estimated that the number is
in the double digits and includes former interior minister Seth
Sendashonga, who was gunned down in traffic in Nairobi in 1998.

Such information is public knowledge in Rwanda. When Nziza walks into
a room, Rudasingwa told me, people start to shake. The murder of
Karegeya does more than silence a potential squealer. It sends a
message to the Rwandan opposition and to ordinary citizens: If someone
as powerful, rich, competent and cunning as Karegeya can be
dispatched, what can be done to the average citizen?

Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch attest that the levels of
fear in Rwanda are pathologically high: Too many people have vanished
and later turned up dead. Karegeya's death is certain to make the
situation worse.

Despite a clear pattern of stifled dissent during his tenure, Kagame
is about to receive his latest installment of U.S. bilateral aid.
Overall foreign aid to Rwanda — estimated to be about $800 million a
year — is roughly 40 percent of its government expenditure, keeping
the country afloat.

Karegeya's murder ought to open a debate on whether Rwanda should
receive any aid at all.

[RwandaLibre] Thirty-two presumed dead in Quebec seniors' home fire

 

Thirty-two presumed dead in Quebec seniors' home fire

Reuters - 59 mins ago
By Matthieu Belanger

L'ISLE-VERTE, Quebec (Reuters) - Thirty-two people were presumed to
have died in the fire that swept through a wooden retirement residence
in the eastern Canadian province of Quebec on Thursday, police said on
Saturday. Eight bodies have been recovered.

The grim reality set in after careful investigation of who was missing
and who may have been out of town, and as security officials worked to
melt layers of ice up to two feet thick that encased many of the
bodies.

"I think we can all agree here today, that the 24 people that are
still missing - I think we can assume the worst, but you have to
understand that we're not going to confirm any deaths until we've
actually recovered the remains," police spokesman Guy Lapointe told a
news conference.

The fire erupted in the early hours of Thursday and ripped through the
Residence Du Havre in L'Isle-Verte, the tiny town northeast of Quebec
City that has been devastated by the tragedy.

Teams of firefighters, police and coroner's officials had to use steam
machines to melt the ice, caused by the vast amounts of water that was
used to put out the flames.

The temperature, which had hovered around minus 22 Celsius (minus 8
Fahrenheit) on Thursday, rose to minus 7 C on Saturday. It was due to
drop to minus 17 C on Sunday, according to the federal environment
ministry's website.

"You can imagine how difficult it is to go through the ice, melt it,
and again, do it in a way that preserves the integrity of potential
victims," Lapointe said.

"So it's very difficult work again today. It's very cold. So we're
doing our best really to go as fast as possible. Every effort is being
deployed. It's just very difficult," he said.

A memorial service will be held in the town on Sunday at 2 pm (1900
GMT). Quebec Premier Pauline Marois has cut short a visit to Europe
and plans to be present, officials said.

In the aftermath of the disaster, attention has focused on the fact
that only part of the residence was equipped with sprinklers, and that
provincial law did not require a sprinkler system there.

Lapointe declined to comment on media reports that the fire may have
been caused by a cigarette in a resident's room.

The police are looking into a report that a night guard at the home
saw thick smoke coming from a second-floor room.

"Our position right now is that's one hypothesis. There are many that
are still on the table. This one is not being privileged at this time,
in the sense that it's the same level as the other ones," Lapointe
said.

"We're still interviewing people, and we can't just go on one or two
facts to state the cause of something of this magnitude."

He also urged residents not to talk to the media, in order to help
maintain the integrity of the police investigation.

"Sadly, when people go forward and talk to the media - and I'm not
saying it's your fault, not at all - but obviously rumors will start
and people come to conclusions, and for us it's very important that we
do the job thoroughly and come to the right conclusion at the end," he
told reporters.

The Quebec branch of the Red Cross, which on Friday appealed for
C$200,000 ($180,200) to help those affected by the disaster, said it
had already raised the entire sum.

Much of the money will be spent on items such as wheelchairs,
clothing, small items of furniture, dentures, hearing aids and eye
glasses, Red Cross spokesman Pascal Mathieu told a news conference on
Saturday.

Some of the specialized hearing aids which are needed can cost up to
C$5,000 per person, he said.

Seniors homes should be a priority for fire prevention measures and
precautions, the residents are often slow, disabled, and mentally
impaired. Not a pleasant way to perish.

BaudMon, 19 hrs ago



From now on, houses, apartments (even if is 3-6 floors) should be
built with cement, concrete! And must have sprinklers on every floors
and in every rooms! (Mandatory) Especially in seniors' home and
apartment buildings! Where there might be some people who forget to
turn off stoves, smoking on the bed/sofa and fell asleep...etc.
(Because there are lots of people living in a building and there might
be some are not careful people). Because if fire occurs at night while
people are sleeping, that's when is deadly and deaths too!

In reply to Andrew re the US vs Canadian firefighters.. Correction
here!!! I have a friend who is a firefighter (Canadian) who has risked
his life many times to save people. When people are running out, he is
running in. SO get your facts straight before you make a comment like
that. My sincere sympathy to all family and friends who have lost
loved ones in this terrible tragedy. It is about time that the Govt
made mandatory the installation of sprinklers in seniors buildings.
Shame on them!

Miss, 2 hrs ago



We shouldn't have to blame the government, etc.........it should be an
automatic part of building and keeping up with modern safety devices.
In other words, we, as individuals, should not have to be ordered by
law to do what is right in the first place. If a building is new, it
should automatically come with all the safety devices. If the building
is old, common sense says to have these devices installed. I hope I
never need to move into a senior facility...or even an apartment
building. This fire should never have happened. I am outraged !

Billie, 3 hrs ago



Our seniors are being forced outside in minus degrees or celcius to
smoke. Why can't they have a smoking room to add comfort in their
later years. It is possible the fire was started by a cigarette... yet
to be determined. If so, would that have be avoided if the person
could go to a safe room with a simple coffee machine and plastic
chairs and have her/his cigarette in peace? We have taken the NO
SMOKING rules too far and now we hide under our sheets to smoke so
that we do not freeze in the winter months.
