In a press release copied to Umuvugizi by the media activist body "Reporters Without Borders" which is shocked by last night but one's murder of Thomas Pere, a reporter for the state-owned New Vision media group in the Ugandan capital of Kampala where his body was found early that morning in an open field a few miles outside the city.

"It is clear from the injuries to Pere's body and the way it was found that his death was not accidental, and that in fact he was murdered," Reporters Without Borders said. " It went on and said that the motive, and whether it was linked to his work, is not yet clear but so far everything suggests that it was not a robbery.

"We welcome the fact that the police lost no time in starting an investigation. We urge them to shed all possible light on the circumstances of Pere's death in order to identify and arrest the perpetrators and instigators." Said Reporters without borders

Pere was last seen in the New Vision newsroom at around 8 p.m. yesterday but one evening before he left to go home. The police found his body at 6 a.m. yesterday in an open field in Massajja, beside the highway from Kampala to Entebbe, the town where he lived.

The police said they did not think he was killed at the place where the body was found. None of his personal effects had been taken. His mobile phone, wallet and two credit cards were all found in his pockets, suggesting that robbery must be ruled out as a motive.

Kampala police spokesman Ibin Ssenkumbi said he appeared to have been killed by a blow to the head with blunt object.

Pere covered society stories for the entertainment and supplements sections and was an active member of the Uganda Tourism Press Association.

[Rwanda Forum] Who is Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, the butcher of Southport, UK?

   If Axel Muganwa Rudakubana had been a son of a Hutu, what would have been the news headlines in Kagame's mouthpiece tabloids? Since Axel Rudakubana's parents are Tutsi genocide survivors, and his father, Alphonse Rudakubana, is a nephew of Wellars Gasamagera, the Secretary General of Rwanda's ruling party - RPF, the tragedy that occurred in the UK has not been mentioned by any tabloids or news outlets in Rwanda. However, had Axel Muganwa Rudakubana been a child of a Hutu, or a child of a Tutsi opposition figure, we can all guess the type of headline that would have appeared in the tabloid controlled by Criminal Paul Kagame. But now, they remain silent on this despicable tragedy. FYI...
