Nyarugenge high court has convicted two WASAC employees, Uwayezu Jean d\u2019Ascension and Ngabonziza Jean Damascene of bribery, sentencing them to three years sentence and a fine of Rwf 80,000. <\/p>\n

Uwayezu and Ngabonziza were arrested in December 2015 after getting caught red-handed soliciting a Rwf 40,000 bribe from the managing director of Bougain Villa Hotel-Resto located in Nyarutarama in a case where they were supposed to disconnect water supply over arrears of Rwf 400,000 the hotel owed WASAC.<\/p>\n

They were caught with the help of WASAC Chief Executive Officer and the managing director of Bougain villa Hotel-Resto.<\/p>\n

The manager of Bougain villa Hotel-Resto said that the debt was accumulated by people who had hired the hotel before he took it over.<\/p>\n

After accepting to offer the briber, the manager of Bougain villa Hotel-Resto, Byuzura David called the managing director of WASAC who alerted the police and arrested the two culprits after getting caught red handed receiving the amount they requested.
\nOn 9th December, 2015 they appeared before Nyarugenge high court where the prosecution requested for a three-year sentence.<\/p>\n

The magistrate, Gatoni Nehemie who read the court ruling said that culprits who didn\u2019t attend the court judgment will serve their time in Kimironko prison.<\/p>\n

Ruterana Lucien, the head of commercial services in WASAC expressed satisfaction over Nyarugenge court\u2019s ruling saying the sentence is deterrent enough to serve as a warning to others that intended to ask for bribes. <\/p>\n
