http://www.fdu-rwanda.com/en/english-rwanda-ingabire-supreme-court-verdict-postponed-again RWANDA: INGABIRE SUPREME COURT VERDICT POSTPONED AGAIN. OCTOBER 05, 2012   Kigali, 05 October 2012 The Supreme court has just postponed to 18 October 2012 (11:00) for the third time the verdict on political prisoner Ingabire constitutional review case on controversial genocide ideology and divisionism laws. This time the official reason is an absent judge. Disappointed supporters gathered at the court house, but left peacefully. This is slowly pushing people to march on till freedom from york of bondage is won. Madame Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza, FDU-Inkingi chair, has been arrested two years ago on politically motivated charges. She has been boycotting the last parts of her trial after serious intimidation of her lone witness. The High court is due to issue a life sentence ruling on 19 October 2012. On 27 September 2012, the Karongi Intermediate court judge Felicien Twagiramungu charged 8 other FDU-Inkingi membersfrom Rutsiro district of illegal political activities and threats to public security. He led a kangaroo process that refused bail and ordered a 30 day-provisional detention in a central prison. However they are still in Karongi police custody being taken videos and audio, to help frame the opposition leader Sylvain SIBOMANA, FDU-Inkingi Secretary General. The key accused, Anselme Mutuyimana, was forced to give his email address and password. Last year it has been established in Kigali high court that Rwandan prosecution used fabricated evidence and forged emails in the case against Madame Victoire Ingabire. FDU Inkingi members Mutuyimana Anselme, Uwiringiyimana venuste, Ufitamahoro Norbert, Dukundane Moise, Twizerimana Valens, Nahimana Marcel, Byukusenge Emmanuel and Gasengayire Leonille are still in police custody since 15 September 2012.

SEPTEMBER 07, 2012   Kigali, 07 September 2012 The High Court in Kigali has just adjourned to Friday 19 October 2012, 11:00, the political verdict of the opposition leader, Madame Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza, incarcerated since 14 October 2010 on politically motivated charges. The Court is waiting for the Supreme court ruling on a constitutional review motion. The prosecution has asked for a life sentence in this case. Most of the presidents of opposition parties in Rwanda are in maximum security prisons. 3 days ago, we informed about the disappearance of the first vice president of PS Imberakuri, Mr. Alexis Bakunzibake. There are news that the kidnappers have dumped him alive in a bush in Kabare district (Uganda). We are still investigating this information. We welcome the return yesterday from exile of Mr. Frank Habineza, leader of the Democratic Green Party of Rwanda. He left after the assassination of his first Vice President, the late André Kagwa Rwisereka in July2010, amonth before the presidential election. The demanded independent investigation never happened. FDU-Inkingi Boniface Twagirimana Interim Vice President
