Why is a Hollywood hero on trial in Rwanda?
After a seven-month long trial in Kigali of βHotel Rwandaβ hero Paul Rusesabagina, his case is set to conclude this week in Rwanda.
The trial of the man who inspired the Hollywood film βHotel Rwandaβ concludes this week in Kigali. Paul Rusesabagina has been on trial charged with crimes related to terrorism, arson, kidnap and murder. The charges relate to rebel attacks that occurred in southern Rwanda in which nine people were killed. Prosecutors are seeking a life sentence, but Mr Rusesabagina has continued to boycott his trail calling it biased. In the next edition of Africa Daily Alan Kasujja looks at the background to this story.
