A French court has sentenced former Rwandan doctor Eugène Rwamucyo to 27 years in prison for complicity in genocide and crimes against humanity tied to Rwanda’s 1994 genocide, where 800,000 Tutsis and moderate Hutus were killed. Although acquitted of direct genocide charges, Rwamucyo, 65, was found guilty of promoting anti-Tutsi propaganda and concealing evidence of mass killings. Witnesses testified that Rwamucyo incited violence and encouraged militiamen to target Tutsis. His defense argued his role in mass burials aimed to prevent a health crisis and maintained he was being prosecuted for political opposition to Rwanda’s government. Previously sentenced to life in absentia by a Rwandan court, Rwamucyo was arrested in France in 2010 after attending the funeral of a former Rwandan official convicted of war crimes during the genocide. This ruling follows a series of Rwandan genocide-related trials in France, including a recent 24-year sentence for former doctor Sosthene Munyemana.
