Rwanda Increases Ingabire's Sentence

The Supreme Court has increased Victoire Ingabire's jail term to 15 years from eight years earlier ruled by the High Court, after it found her guilty of inciting the masses to revolt against the government, forming armed groups to destabilise the country, and minimising the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi.
