How the Rwandan embassy in Tanzania recently kidnapped FDRL top commander in charge of Combat operations from Tanzania


How the Rwandan embassy in Tanzania recently kidnapped FDRL top commander in charge of Combat operations from Tanzania

A killing squad head by Lt Col Tinka abducted Gen stanislas Bigaruka from Tanzania to notorious directorate of military intelligence detention where he is inserted on severe torture with possibilities of being murdered at any given time.

By Gasasira, Sweden
Reliable Information obtained by Umuvugizi confirms that Kagame's intelligence outfit continue to heighten their subversive activities of abducting Gen Stanislas Bigaruka, who was the in charge of combat operations in FDRL and deputy commander to General Sylvestre Mudacumura.

This abduction activity of Gen Stanislas Bigaruka was carried out by the notorious killer Lt Col Tinka, who is the military attaché to the Rwandan embassy in Tanzania. This blood thirsty killer squad led by this notorious murderer Tinka, intercepted him near his residence in a Tanzanian town of Kigoma, where he has been living with his children after fleeing Rwanda after 1994 Genocide.

According to Umuvugizi investigative desk, the abduction of Gen Bigarura Stanislas happened when he was on his way from Kigoma after visiting his children heading to another place called Mweso in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where he was supposed to continue his journey heading to Zambia in order to meet some of the Rwandan refugees who resides there.

This killing squad led by Lt Col Tinka Faustin, assisted by some of the security officials in Tanzania, abducted Gen Bigaruka and handed him over to the notorious Directorate of Military Intelligence (DMI) which is famously known of abducting and murdering several Rwandans, to an extent that it's not a shock to find out that Gen Bigaruka Faustin also faces this fate of being murdered after extracting necessary information they wanted from him.

What is so strange in all this, is how a country like Tanzania, well respected in the region and built on the foundations of respecting human rights, can be an accomplice and allow to facilitate this notorious murderer Lt Col Tinka Faustin to abduct people of such high profile regarded as President Kagame's number one enemy from its soil given that Gen Bigaruka Stanislas is well known as one of the leaders of FDRL armed group which has been battling the Government of president Kagame immediately after 1994 genocide with it's headquarters in DR Congo .

All the people we talked too agreed on one thing that even if the FDRL armed group , of which Gen Bigaruka Stanislas was it's deputy leader in charge of combat operations , is also well known of having committed atrocities against innocent Civilians most especially in DR Congo , but Tanzania was a shocker to abscond its international obligation by violating international laws on refugees and became an accomplice to the abduction of a person who it had granted asylum status without delivering him to any competent courts to either charge him basing on Tanzanian law or pronounce it's self on his final fate before deporting him back to Rwanda , a country they well know that it's one man's state and without independent Justice.

To make matters worse, was this ill decision of Tanzanian authorities to hand over an operational commander of an armed group which has been well known of battling Rwanda Defence Forces which means that his life is put at high risk most especially that Rwanda's killing squad which is interrogating him under the notorious directorate of military intelligence is famously known of torturing and shedding blood of it's suspects than providing them to it's kangaroo military courts.

Why We Exist

Many abuses facing African people are committed by African states, ruling elites, armed groups, military forces and security services. But these abuses are often sustained by international silence, Western lobbying, trade interests, migration deals, mineral access, diplomatic partnerships and unequal global accountability. Africa Realities Media exposes that system.

Lived Experience Matters

Survivors, displaced communities, refugees, families affected by repression, journalists, activists, women, young people and diaspora voices are not passive subjects. They are knowledge holders. Their experiences must shape policy, advocacy, journalism and public debate. The people closest to injustice are often closest to the solutions.

Our Principle

Africa Realities Media is rooted in one principle: African lives deserve equal truth, equal justice and equal protection.

Why Africa Realities Media Is Different

Africa Realities Media speaks to Africa and to the developed world. Many abuses facing African people are committed by African states and ruling elites, but they are often protected by international silence, lobbying, public relations, trade interests, migration deals and unequal global accountability. While governments pay lobbyists to present a good image abroad, ordinary African people continue to face violence, hunger, disease, poverty, repression and exclusion. We challenge the normalisation of African suffering and demand equal truth, equal justice and equal protection.

Pourquoi Africa Realities Media est différent?

Africa Realities Media s’adresse à l’Afrique et au monde développé. De nombreux abus subis par les peuples africains sont commis par des États africains et des élites dirigeantes, mais ils sont souvent protégés par le silence international, le lobbying, les relations publiques, les intérêts commerciaux, les accords migratoires et une responsabilité mondiale inégale. Tandis que des gouvernements paient des lobbyistes pour présenter une bonne image à l’étranger, des Africains ordinaires continuent de faire face à la violence, à la faim, aux maladies, à la pauvreté, à la répression et à l’exclusion. Nous contestons la normalisation de la souffrance africaine et exigeons une vérité égale, une justice égale et une protection égale.

Policy and Systems Change

Our work is designed to trigger debate, discomfort and action. We do not only expose injustice; we work for policy and systems change. We want governments and institutions to address the root causes of inequality, disadvantage, discrimination, exclusion and barriers affecting African people. We believe lasting change must be shaped by people with lived experience.

Exposing Injustice in Africa

Africa Realities Media is an independent African accountability platform based in London. We report, analyse and challenge the systems that shape African suffering, silence African victims and protect abusive power. We are not here to repeat diplomatic language. We are here to ask the questions that are often avoided: why are African deaths treated as normal? Why are African victims given less urgency? Why are governments that imprison, exclude, displace or kill their own people protected when they serve powerful international interests?

Africanews

Africa Realities Media gives space to writers, researchers, experts, activists, community voices, campaigners, analysts and people with lived experience who want to contribute thoughtful, responsible and courageous content about the changes needed in the region, as well as the political, economic, cultural and social African realities that are often ignored, minimised or misrepresented. Our articles and videos aim to encourage debate, raise awareness, stimulate critical thinking and support reflection. We seek to help people in the Great Lakes Region understand their rights to human rights, development and wellbeing, while also encouraging decision-makers to be more transparent, responsive and accountable.
