Onesphore Rwabukombe, a former Rwandan mayor, was sentenced to 14
years in prison for his role in the Rwandan genocide, according to the BBC.
He was found guilty of
ordering the killing of between 400 and 1,200 people who had taken refuge at a
church in Kiziguro, where Rwabukombe was the mayor at the time. He had been
living as a political refugee in Germany since 2002. This was the first trial to take place in Germany in connection with the Rwandan genocide.
