We, members of Rwandan Democratic Forum, call on the UK Prime Minister, David Cameron to put pressure on the International Criminal Court in the Hague to indict the dictator and war criminal Paul Kagame of Rwanda.
Rwandan and Congolese people do not understand why President Omar Hassan Ahmad Al-Bashir of Sudan was indicted by the ICC and Kagame was left behind defying the international community over human rights abuses in his country and in Democratic Republic of Congo.
The UK and the International Community's double standards are contributing to undermine the credibility and fairness of ICC. The dictator and war criminal Kagame continues to travel around the world , meeting world leaders who consider themselves to be the leaders of countries of democracy and human rights. In addition to the genocide committed by Kagame against Hutu communities in RDC, Kagame continues to massacre hundreds of thousands of innocent Congolese people. Hundreds of innocent Congolese people are now displaced and living in appalling conditions which are characterised by hunger, malnutrition, diseases and insecurity. Congolese children are not able to go to school. A year lost in education is a year lost of opportunity for those children. Congolese farmers are not able to return home to continue their economic activities while Kagame continues to illegally exploit Congolese natural resources.
