One of the most notorious names in the Rwandan Genocide - an officer whose troops allegedly raped and killed the former Rwandan prime minister and the Belgian soldiers protecting her - is living in Zimbabwe, RNA reports.

Tongai: Grow up and wake up. We are sick and tired of criminals hiding behind being African. By the sound of your name, you are from Zimbabwe. How ironic that a Zimbabwean would talk about Africans solving African problems.
Thisis: Your name simply suggest that you do not know where you are going or come from.
I tried to find the relationship between my comment and growing up and waking up and i couldn't find it. The only conclusion I could come up with was that maybe the author is the one who needs growing up and working up.
Africans criminals should tried by African courts in Africa, not Americans who have committed every crime that can be committed against humanity especially against Africans. If you are an African and you don't think this is right, then you must be a dangerous African.
Talking about Zimbabwe, there is a Zimbabwean solution already but the west can't stand it.
Zimbabwe solution? Do you mean beating and murdering and torturing people who might put their vote in the wrong box? Do you mean keeping the aid agencies out of the country so people will go hungry and potentially starve to death? Another form of punishment for not voting for Mugabe. Do you mean continually arresting and harrasing opposition candidates so they have no time to rally their supporters? Do you mean burning all foreign newspapers? Do you mean putting an import tax on foreign newspapers so no one can read them? Do you you mean making up sanctions to be the cause of the broken economy and blaming everyone but Mugabe for this? Do you mean forcing people in the military to vote for mugabe even though it is supposed to be a democratic election? Do you mean kidnapping and murdering opposition mp's? I thought so.
Tongai, you are from lala land. As Thisis has said, "grow up and wake up" The fact that you could not find that connection to your name, means that you are a sleeping fool. I suggest that you take a good look at Awt_independence's post and digest it before you write anymore rubbish and make a fool of yourself. Do you just walk around in Zimbabwe with your finger in your nose and your eyes closed?
Tongai, I really pity you. What Thisis stated is what you need, to grow up and wake up. My advice is to start by reading and understanding that will help you to differentiate between issues and interests and of course to know what media needs to report and justice doing its work. Am sorry if you are Zimbabwean you need more help than you think you can have.
I read through all your comments, and sorry to say, found them off the mark and childish to say the least. The meaning of Tongai's name, his origin, or suggestion on the US are non issues here and not worthy a point of discussion. The issue is here is whether the Rwanda genocide suspect should be arrested and brought to book by a competent court. It doesn't matter whether this court is in Zimbabwe, US or Arusha as longer as it can be impartial and has jurisdiction over such international crime cases. It would even be proper if such a suspect is extradited back to where the crimes were committed to give room for proper investigation. I suggest you all dig deep into the Rwandan Genocide to be able to make an informed comment.
How much luck have African leaders had solving Zimbabwe's problems? None. The entire continent is ruled by a fraternity of dictators only interested in protecting themselves and not their people. Rwanda demands Justice!! Why should Rwanda have to wait for other African countries before seeking justice. Did even one African country send troops to end the genocide? No. Rwandan troops ended the genocide. We cannot wait for the entire continent to unite before pursuing reasonable goals.
Major Protais Mpiranya, a former head of the Presidential Guard is wanted by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda and has a $5 million (about Rwf 2.7 billion) bounty on his head as part of the U.S. government 'Reward for Justice' program.
Who the hell is the US? They killed two cities in Japan and they continue to kill in Iraq and they go around the world giving bounties for "Justice". What justice???
The US enslaved Africans and you want them to come to Africa to talk about Justice!!!!!! ICC is not an African organisation and if its going to be an orgainisation with any credibility in African, it should try America and Britain before it can go to Africa. US goes around Africa looking for agreement giving U.S. citizens immunity from prosecution by the ICC. Botswana admitted signing an agreement with America giving U.S. citizens immunity from prosecution by the International Criminal Court (ICC);under the U.S. Bilateral Immunity Agreements (or so-called "Article 98" Agreements) (Re:www.talkzimbabwe.com).And now African media talks about this. Shame on this Rwandas News Agency. If you have no news don't report!!!!
There should be an African court to try all these African criminals not this so called ICC, a western organisation. We are Africans we can solve our own problems.
