#Rwanda says 600 M23 combatants have entered from #Congo. Will it commit to send Bosco Ntaganda to ICC if he arrives? trib.al/csoKBtf

@KenRoth #Rwanda #Congo Why ICC and not DRC? Rwanda is not signatory thus not part to ICC.Ntaganda never been in #Rwanda since #M23 started!

@KenRoth "If" he arrives? Are you talking about the guy who is indicted since 2006 but was later promoted General in the FARDC? Hmm!
onduhungireheOlivier Nduhungirehe
@KenRoth In other words, #DRC, party to the Rome statute, has no obligation to send its General, but #Rwanda, non-party, would have it!
KenRothKenneth Roth
@LMushikiwabo So if he arrives will Rwanda prosecute Bosco Ntaganda for his war crimes instead of sending him to the ICC? Or is it impunity?
KenRothKenneth Roth
@LMushikiwabo We've long pressed Congo to arrest Bosco Ntaganda. It fears Rwanda retaliation. Will you say it's ok for Congo to arrest him?
onduhungireheOlivier Nduhungirehe
@KenRoth "DRC fears Rwanda retaliation"! Hahaha! BTW Rwanda has no authority to okay any arrest of a congolese on DRC soil! @LMushikiwabo
KenRothKenneth Roth
@onduhungirehe @LMushikiwabo #Congo says Bosco Ntaganda is now in #Rwanda. Will you confirm & vow to prosecute or surrender him to the ICC?
onduhungireheOlivier Nduhungirehe
@KenRoth @LMushikiwabo Congo? Come on! This Lambert Mende! Don't you know him yet? Do you want me to recall all his legendary lies?
onduhungireheOlivier Nduhungirehe
@KenRoth @LMushikiwabo Do u want me to recall how he denied the Joint Ops in Rutshuru, while his generals wer attending withdrawal ceremony?

@onduhungirehe @KenRoth @LMushikiwabo. By the way, ntaganda, one time, operated in joint operation with monusco and fardc. HRW check records

@KenRoth is that a fact? whose retaliation does #DRCgvt fear by arresting #FDLR genocidaires or no pressure from you on this? @LMushikiwabo
KenRothKenneth Roth
@LMushikiwabo I take it, sadly, from that evasive response that the answer is no, #Rwanda doesn't want anyone to prosecute Bosco Ntaganda.
LMushikiwaboLouise Mushikiwabo
@KenRoth #Rwanda Ken, you should know by now that Rwanda is anything but evasive. And btw: who will prosecute you for abusing my country?
RutsinziClaude
@RobertAlai who keeps @KenRoth in check then?to put it the other way who guards the guardians? especially now #Roths seem mad @LMushikiwabo

@LMushikiwabo @kenroth what's your plan for Baudoin Ngaruye? His presence in Rwanda is confirmed. Warlords do not qualify for "asylum."
LMushikiwaboLouise Mushikiwabo
@moniquebeadle @kenroth Are you kidding? Do you know how many Rwandan genocidaires live unbothered where you and Ken Roth live?
moniquebeadleMonique Beadle
@LMushikiwabo @kenroth I understand the anger (my family survived genocide 2) but not refusal 2 do what is right b/c others won't.
LMushikiwaboLouise Mushikiwabo
@moniquebeadle @kenroth Agree,so let's apply that where there's certainty before jumping oceans 2 speculate about Rwa not doing right thing.

@LMushikiwabo @kenroth I have personally pursued them. Started with C.Taylor's son who sought safe haven in Miami. Now he is behind bars.
LMushikiwaboLouise Mushikiwabo
@moniquebeadle @kenroth Not familiar w. crimes of C. Taylor's son, but will send you names of Rwa genocidaires not far from you: deal?
KenRothKenneth Roth
@LMushikiwabo It'd be wiser for senior #Rwanda officials supporting abusive #Congo rebels to study the Charles Taylor case, not his son's.
moniquebeadleMonique Beadle
@LMushikiwabo @kenroth yes. Good point. Important to be in the business of restoring sight to the blind, rather than cursing the darkness.

@ChangeIA @KenRoth How long has #FDLR been on #DRC soil? They massacred almost my entire kin. Talk of a culture of impunity. #Rwanda #ICC

@4dbos @KenRoth What exactly does this have to do with keeping Ntaganda and Nkunda away from justice I wonder. Answer: nothing. Try again.
