Prosecutors allege Paul Rusesabagina was leader of rebel group responsible for deadly attacks
Paul Rusesabagina, a businessman whose role in saving more than 1,000 lives inspired the film Hotel Rwanda, has appeared in court in Rwanda’s capital, Kigali, to face charges of terrorism and murder.
The family of Rusesabagina, who is an outspoken critic of President Paul Kagame, have accused the east African country’s authorities of kidnapping the 66-year-old from Dubai earlier this month and denying him fair legal representation.
