New list of genocide suspects

The chief prosecutor, Gerald Gahima, has released a new list of genocide suspects, classified as “category one”, RNA reported. The new list contains 2,133 names and is “quite different” from the first one, Gahima was quoted as saying. He added that about 643 names were removed from the initial list, and 830 new names appear on the revised one. “It is true that the first list had a number of errors and this was partly due to lack of necessary personnel,” he admitted. “This time, errors were by all means minimised as the list was solely prepared by the chief prosecutor himself.”
