Rwandan genocide suspect arrested in Uganda

Ugandan police arrested a Rwandan genocide suspect on Thursday after following him for many months.

Thaddee Kwitonda, now a Belgium citizen, is wanted by a court in Belgium for his alleged involvement in the killings.

A spokesperson for the Ugandan police, Asuman Mugenyi told AFP,

"We had been trailing him since March because we had information that he was here, and that he had changed his name and was shifting his addresses here."

"We are still working on what to do with him. It is Belgium that has issued the warrant for him and not Rwanda."
