Rwanda’s notoriously murderous Police have been detaining Dr’ Christopher Kayumba for months now.

He was assaulted and thrown in jail after an altercation at the Kigali International Airport.

Dr. Christopher Kayumba ‘s criticism of the ruthlessness, impunity and bullying methods of the Rwandan Police have put a target on him and made his life very difficult in Rwanda. He has been harassed, mugged, bullied just like the regretted victims who were murdered in cold blood before the Police concocted sordid stories explaining their deaths to the Rwandan public.

Here are some examples :

Kizito Mihigo, they said it was suicide
Assinapol Rwigara , they stabbed him and said he had been a victim of a car accident
Maitre Donat Mutunzi ,killed in police custody , they said it was suicide
President Kagame’s personal Doctor, shot dead “while trying to fight the police” they said
Niyomugabo Gerard , dissapeared , the police have not acknowledged having him in their custody.

Is Dr. Christopher Kayumba going to be the latest “suicide case” at the hands of Kagame’s assassins?

Are they going to handcuff him and say he tried to assault a nearby officer, trying to grab his weapon as they said in the case of Dr. Gasakure? Will we be told that he has tried to abscond and was shot?

Rwandans are tired of this repression. We have embarked on a journey toward another tragic end.
