{{Rwanda received (Monday) the Dossier of Uwinkindi Jean-Bosco a Pentecostal pastor accused of helping to orchestrate the mass killings in Rwanda\u2019s 1994 Tutsi genocide.}}<\/p>\n
Martin Ngoga the Prosecutor general hailed the development saying this is a win for Rwanda\u2019s Justice system.<\/p>\n
The chief Prosecutor International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, Hassan Bubacar Jallow presented to Rwanda\u2019s Prosecutor general the dossier containing all criminal charges against Uwinkindi. <\/p>\n
This follows the request by Rwanda to try within the countrys judicial system some genocide suspects being held at the Arusha based International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda ICTR.<\/p>\n
The ICTR chief Prosecutor Bubacar Jallow explained that the decision to transfer Uwinkindi and others to be tried in Rwanda was adopted in December 2011 following a clear transformation of Rwanda\u2019s justice system especially the removal of the death penalty. <\/p>\n
Uwinkindi who had a five-million dollar reward on his head was arrested as soon as he crossed into Uganda from the Democratic Republic of Congo following a tipoff from the ICTR that had been tracking him.<\/p>\n
Uwinkindi was in 2001 indicted by the UN-backed International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) for genocide, conspiracy to commit genocide and extermination as a crime against humanity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
