Arr\u00eat\u00e9 en mars 2024 dans la ville de Youngstown, dans l\u2019\u00c9tat de l\u2019Ohio, Nshimiyimana est poursuivi pour avoir dissimul\u00e9 pendant pr\u00e8s de 30 ans son implication pr\u00e9sum\u00e9e dans le g\u00e9nocide perp\u00e9tr\u00e9 contre les Tutsi, dans le but d\u2019obtenir frauduleusement le statut de r\u00e9fugi\u00e9, puis la nationalit\u00e9 am\u00e9ricaine.<\/p>\n

Apr\u00e8s un premier refus de mise en libert\u00e9 sous caution dans l\u2019Ohio, son dossier a \u00e9t\u00e9 transf\u00e9r\u00e9 dans le Massachusetts, o\u00f9 ses nouvelles demandes ont \u00e9galement \u00e9t\u00e9 rejet\u00e9es.<\/p>\n

Son avocat, Me Kurt P. Kerns, a d\u00e9nonc\u00e9, selon lui, une violation de la Constitution am\u00e9ricaine, affirmant que son client ne devrait pas \u00eatre priv\u00e9 de libert\u00e9 sans proc\u00e9dure l\u00e9gale \u00e9quitable, d\u2019autant plus que son proc\u00e8s ne devrait pas s\u2019ouvrir avant au moins un an.<\/p>\n

Les documents judiciaires \u00e0 charge dressent un portrait accablant de l\u2019accus\u00e9. \u00c0 l\u2019\u00e9poque des faits, Nshimiyimana \u00e9tait \u00e9tudiant en m\u00e9decine \u00e0 l\u2019Universit\u00e9 nationale du Rwanda \u00e0 Butare. <\/p>\n

Il est d\u00e9crit comme un membre actif du parti au pouvoir de l\u2019\u00e9poque, le MRND, et de la milice Interahamwe, tristement c\u00e9l\u00e8bre pour sa participation directe aux massacres.<\/p>\n

Selon les \u00e9l\u00e9ments vers\u00e9s au dossier, Nshimiyimana aurait tu\u00e9 des hommes, des femmes et des enfants en les frappant \u00e0 l\u2019aide de gourdins avant de les achever \u00e0 la machette. <\/p>\n

Le cas d\u2019un gar\u00e7on de 14 ans et d\u2019un tailleur d\u2019uniformes hospitaliers \u00e0 l\u2019h\u00f4pital universitaire figure parmi les exemples document\u00e9s. Il est \u00e9galement accus\u00e9 d\u2019avoir viol\u00e9 plusieurs femmes, ou d\u2019avoir particip\u00e9 \u00e0 des actes de viol collectifs durant la p\u00e9riode du g\u00e9nocide contre les Tutsi.<\/p>\n

Apr\u00e8s avoir fui le Rwanda \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9t\u00e9 1994, il se serait r\u00e9fugi\u00e9 au Kenya, o\u00f9 il aurait fourni de fausses informations aux services d\u2019immigration am\u00e9ricains pour obtenir l\u2019asile. <\/p>\n

Install\u00e9 dans l\u2019Ohio depuis 1995, il aurait continu\u00e9, des ann\u00e9es durant, \u00e0 dissimuler son pass\u00e9 et \u00e0 fournir de fausses d\u00e9clarations sur son r\u00f4le durant le g\u00e9nocide commis contre les Tutsi au Rwanda.<\/p>\n
