 | | Bizimungu was appointed the nominal head of the government of national unity after the genocide and resigned in 2000 after falling out with his then deputy, the current president, Paul Kagame, the Tutsi leader of the rebel force which ousted the extremist Hutu regime which orchestrated the genocide. |
 | | A Rwandan court sentenced the former president Pasteur Bizimungu, the moderate Hutu installed after the genocide, to 15 years in jail yesterday for threatening national security, embezzling public funds and fomenting ethnic divisions |
 | | He was accused of trying to set up a political party, Democratic Renewal, aimed at overthrowing the government by appealing to the Hutu majority. |
