However, he noted that no country can achieve all these milestones if it doesn\u2019t prevent crimes. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe role of civil society, if I may make a suggestion, will need to align to the country trajectory I described above and work to achieve it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Andrews Kananga, the executive director of the Legal Aid Forum (LAF) said that RIB is a new institution that needs support to build capacity and improve on implementation of its mandate. <\/p>\n<p>RIB Secretary General, Col. Jeannot Ruhunga said that the role of civil societies and other institutions is needed, especially in preventing crimes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf we don\u2019t get support from other institutions to combat crimes, we are obviously only fighting what was done without being preventive,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Minister of Justice and Attorney General, Johnston Busingye has said that in order for Rwanda to prevent crimes, it is imperative that all institutions cooperate and work collectively with Rwanda Investigation Bureau (RIB).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":22,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[75],"byline":[198],"hashtag":[],"class_list":["post-38282","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-homenews","byline-elie-imanishimwe"],"bylines":[{"id":198,"name":"Elie Imanishimwe","slug":"elie-imanishimwe","description":"","image":{"id":0,"url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&f=y&r=g","alt":"Default avatar","title":"Default avatar","caption":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","sizes":[]},"user_id":22}],"contributors":[{"id":198,"name":"Elie Imanishimwe","slug":"elie-imanishimwe","description":"","image":{"id":0,"url":"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/?s=96&d=mm&f=y&r=g","alt":"Default avatar","title":"Default avatar","caption":"","mime_type":"image\/jpeg","sizes":[]},"user_id":22}],"featured_image":null,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38282","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/22"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=38282"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/38282\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=38282"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=38282"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=38282"},{"taxonomy":"byline","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/byline?post=38282"},{"taxonomy":"hashtag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/new.igihe.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/hashtag?post=38282"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
