Rwandan Genocide Suspect's Arrest in France Raises Questions

Lisa Bryant

   PARIS - Human rights and survivor groups are cheering Saturday's arrest
   in France of a top Rwandan genocide suspect, Felicien Kabuga. But
   questions are mounting about how he managed to evade justice for so
   long -- and the fate of other suspects and accomplices in the 1994
   killings.

   Neighbors in the Paris suburb where Kabuga lived say they knew little
   about the frail 84-year-old.

   But for many people, Kabuga is infamous. One of Rwanda's richest
   businessmen before the 1994 genocide, he faces multiple charges from a
   U.N. tribunal for allegedly funding and backing perpetrators of the
   mass slaughter.

   Authorities say he also bankrolled and presided over the incendiary
   Radio Milles Collines that egged them on.
