Leon Mugesera: Rwanda

Genocide In Rwanda Dept: Mugesera lost his final bid to avoid deportation on Monday when the Federal Court dismissed a motion for a stay of deportation, and by late afternoon, he was put on a plane headed for Rwanda's capital city, according to CBC. Word of Mugesera's deportation had already spread like wildfire throughout the East African country, even before his plane had left the ground in Montreal and leon Mugesera, the long-time Quebec City resident accused of genocide in Rwanda, is expected to land in Kigali late on Tuesday, according to Rwanda's Minister of Foreign Affairs and Co-operation Louise Mushikiwabo. "Leon Mugesera is now airbound for Kigali!" Mushikiwabo tweeted late Monday night, Kigali time. "Thank ordinary people in Canada who saw through confusion in the international legal labyrinth and said, 'he must go.'" A sense of relief (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
