Théogène Rudasingwa, ancien bras droit du président rwandais Paul Kagame, a été entendu vendredi à Paris dans le cadre de la deuxième enquête française sur l’attentat du 6 avril 1994 contre l’avion du président Juvénal Habyarimana. Issu de l’ancienne diaspora tutsi comme l’homme fort de Kigali, Rudasingwa accuse le président Kagame, depuis son exil en 2005, d’être le principal responsable de cet attentat. Un attentat considéré comme l’élément déclencheur du génocide de 1994 qui a fait, selon l’ONU, près de 800.000 morts, essentiellement d’ethnie tutsi.

"J’ai répondu aux questions des juges (Marc) Trévidic et (Nathalie) Poux la semaine dernière. J’ai dit tout ce que je sais de cet attentat ", a indiqué Rudasingwa l’ancien directeur de cabinet du président Kagame, à Radio Netherlands Worldwide, joint au téléphone aux Etats-Unis. Aujourd’hui membre très actif du Congrès national rwandais (Rwanda National Congress - RNC) qu’il a créé en exil avec d’autres anciens compagnons d’armes du chef de l’Etat, Rudasingwa fut également secrétaire général du Front patriotique rwandais (FPR) actuellement au pouvoir, puis ambassadeur du Rwanda aux Etats-Unis.


Menaces

"Plusieurs autres témoins rwandais sont prêts à être entendus. Mais il faudra que des mesures de protection soient prises pour eux parce que Kagame veut éliminer tous ceux qui détiennent des informations sur cet attentat", a poursuivi Rudasingwa. "Moi-même je suis conscient des menaces contre ma personne, mais il arrive des moments où l’on prend son courage à deux mais pour dire la vérité." L’ambassadrice rwandaise aux Pays-Bas, Immaculée Uwanyiligira, a réfuté l’année dernière toute allégation de menaces de la diaspora rwandaise.
Rudasingwa a expliqué à RNW avoir pris ce risque à cause de la "gravité de la question". "Les gens doivent dire la vérité, aussi longtemps que le mensonge et l’impunité règneront au Rwanda, il n’y aura pas de justice au Rwanda. Il faut la justice pour tous les Rwandais ", a déclaré Rudasingwa. "Il faut que l’auteur principal de cet attentat soit puni, dans l’intérêt de la justice, de l’unité et de la réconciliation des Rwandais. C’est Kagame qui a ordonné d’abattre l’avion, déclenchant ainsi le génocide. Il faut que les auteurs du génocide (des Tutsi) soient poursuivis et punis. Sans oublier Kagame qui l’a déclenché", a-t-il ajouté dans cet entretien téléphonique. Il a refusé d’aborder en détail son interrogatoire par les deux juges français.

L’enquête Habyarimana

Une enquête a été ouverte en France en 1998 suite aux plaintes des familles des membres d’équipages français décédés dans l’attentat. D’abord menée par le juge Jean-Louis Bruguière, qui avait conclu en 2006 à la responsabilité du FPR, l’instruction est désormais entre les mains de deux juges anti-terroristes, Nathalie Poux et Marc Trévidic. Les résultats d'une expertise balistique effectuée à leur demande in situ à Kigali, en septembre 2010, sont toujours attendus.

Le Bureau du Procureur auprès du Tribunal pénal international pour le Rwanda (TPIR) s’est toujours refusé à enquêter sur l’attentat du 6 avril 1994, affirmant qu’il ne rentrait pas dans son mandat, explication qui ne convainc pas les organisations internationales de défense des droits de l’homme comme Human Rights Watch et Amnesty International.

Are Rwanda’s courts ready to prosecute the country’s worst crimes? As opposition leader Victoire Ingabire announces she will boycott her terror trial after losing all hope of having a fair trial, some critics are saying it appears not.

By Josephine Uwineza, Hilversum

“Ingabire’s decision to withdraw from the trial certainly doesn’t increase her chances of being acquitted,” says her British lawyer, Iain Edwards. “But she’s a grown woman, she’s an intelligent woman, she’s an independent woman and she has taken the decision that she has.”

Ms Ingabire Victoire The Would be President of Rwanda And now in Prison. Western Governments should improve their sincerity on democratic issues in Africa. The Criminal Kagame is no way intimidated He's even encouraged to assassinate That woman who still believes in DEMOCRATIC VALUES Enough is Enough

ICTR judges had previously kept Uwikindi in Arusha, saying they couldn’t send him back until “a suitable monitoring mechanism is established to oversee his trial." In ruling that Uwikindi could be returned, court President Judge Khalida Rachid Khan instructed the registry to “urgently undertake discussions and negotiations” to put such a monitoring system in place. While ultimately the ACHPR (African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights) will monitor the domestic trials, for now, an interim monitor is doing the job.
Fair trial?
Courts worldwide—including those in Canada, Norway, Sweden and even the ECHR (European Court of Human Rights)—are also ruling that it is safe to send Rwandans back home for fair trials.
But Victoire Ingabire insists it is not.

During her trial in Kigali last month, she challenged judges to nullify the laws related to “divisionism” and “genocide ideology.” She argued they are too broad and being exploited by current President Paul Kagame’s government to limit the freedom of thought.


The ideology law is seen by many legal specialists and human rights organizations as “impossibly vague, broad and abstract,” according to a 2010 Amnesty International report.


But just last week, Rwandan Supreme Court judges rejected her plea on a technicality, saying “she had failed to secure a copy of the 2008 law on genocide, which was also supposed to be attached to her plea.”
Ingabire’s key witness, Michel Habimana, a Lt Colonel of the FDLR (Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda), told the court he has been intimidated by prosecutors’ threats and interrogated by unknown officials, casting further doubts, say legal experts, on the independence of the judiciary.
