 LONDON (AP) - Hutu extremists accused of masterminding the Rwandan genocide and then fleeing to Congo cannot expect forgiveness, Rwanda's president said in an interview Sunday.
Paul Kagame, who led the Tutsi rebels who ended the genocide in Rwanda in 1994, said he would work with the new Congolese government to contain the Hutu extremists. But he said he could not envision offering them amnesty, as the Congolese have done for some of their own rebel groups in an effort to bring peace to the country.
"There are no grounds whatsoever to say these people ... should be given any amnesty," Kagame told The Associated Press in an interview during a stop in London on his way to New York for the U.N. General Assembly meeting.
