Two more floating corpses recovered on Lake Rweru in southern Rwanda

Bodies of two unidentified men have been recovered this week by security agencies floating in Lake Rweru located in southern Rwanda, bringing the total to seven corpses that have been so far recovered on the lake.
Local media in Kigali reports Friday that the decomposing bodies floating on the water surface have been retrieved and those counted since these series of unidentified bodies came to the spotlights of international attention, pushing the United States Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) to officially announce its willingness to take up the case.
In a related development, the Burundian authorities have maintained that all the corpses that have been recovered by fishermen from Rweru, a small lake straddling across the common border of the two countries were from Rwanda, but the the Rwandan minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation, Louise Mushikiwabo has strongly refuted these "false claims".
APA notes that the first corpses were found on the lake in late August, but the Burundian authorities have since confirmed the establishment of an investigation commission in order to clarify the situation regarding the corpses which have not yet been identified as their origin still remains a mystery.
"These allegations [by Burundian authorities] over corpses on Lake Rweru contained grave accusations and they cannot be taken lightly. Rwanda remains determined to take immediate corrective measures should those who made those allegations prove to have any factual basis," Mushikiwabo told reporters in Kigali.
Rwanda and Burundi are neighours that share the same history, language and tradition.

[RwandaLibre] Rwanda : 19 ans après les massacres de Kibeho restent toujours impunis

  http://www.fdu-rwanda.com/ Rwanda : 19 ans après les massacres de Kibeho restent toujours impunis avril 22, 2014     Ce 22 avril 2014 est un triste anniversaire. Souvenons-nous, en effet, c'est à cette date que plus de 8'000 réfugiés dans le camp de Kibeho furent tués à l'arme lourde et aux lance-roquettes des soldats du Front Patriotique Rwandais. Des dizaines de milliers de rescapés du camp qui ont tenté ensuite de s'échapper ont été froidement abattus sur leur chemin de retour, les uns, jetés dans des fosses communes, d'autres, jonchés tout le long des routes, d'autres enfin, tout simplement disparus, sans la moindre trace.   Le camp de réfugiés de Kibeho abritait près de 200000 personnes. Que l'on se rappelle, c'est peu avant le 17 avril 1995 que, sous le prétexte fallacieux de démantèlement de prétendus arsenaux d'armes, six bataillons de l'armée du FPR (2000 hommes) et de la...
