PRESS RELEASE ON
KILLINGS OF RWANDA REFUGEES IN UGANDA
THE UN HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR REFUGEES MUST ASSUME ITS RESPONSIBILITIES FULLY.
While all the attention is diverted onto yet another extermination
attempt of Rwandan refugees in Congo - DRC under the pretext of fighting the
FDLR, General Paul Kagame’s regime continues its Machiavellian liquidation plan
of Rwandan refugees in other countries with interposed accomplices, including
Uganda.
This recalls the sad period between 1995 and 1996 when RPF army’s
infiltrators in neighboring countries were engaging in systematic killings of
Rwandan refugees in Burundi, Tanzania and the DRC (Zaire) under the bemused eye
of UNHCR in a complicit silence of the international community.
Increasingly insistent voices report massacres of dozens of Rwandan
refugees in Nakivale camp in Uganda. From 19 to 20 December 2014, the Ugandan
police engaged in arbitrary arrests and beat Rwandan refugees up to bleeding
before UNHCR complicit indifference. Many of them are reported missing.

On 29/01/2015 there were other massacre attempts of refugees by members
of the KABAZANA-MAYANJA police that cost "Chief defense" Kamanzi and
Muhayimana Thomas who were opposing it their lives. Mr Thomas Muhayimana was in
charge of refugees at KASHOJWA village.
On 01.30.2015, the Ugandan police in OPM (Office of Prime Minister) vans
hauled out several refugees in the village of KITYAZA. Many of those refugees
are reported missing; three refugees including KAZUNGU
have been killed.
FDU-Inkingi denounces the silence of the Ugandan government and the complicity of UNHCR before massacres of Rwandan refugees in Uganda.
A lasting solution to the Rwandan refugee crisis in the Great Lakes
region lies in the resolution of the Rwandan political crisis that is at its
source. That is why FDU-Inkingi have relentlessly repeated that the issue of
Rwandan refugees in Congo, and other scattered all over the world, will not be
resolved through military means but by political negotiations.
