🚨 Félicien #Kabuga is NOT fit to be flown to #Rwanda, judges at the #ICTR’s Residual Mechanism have decided.
A few days ago, Prosecutor’s submitted a report from an expert on aeromedical transfer, arguing that it would be possible.
But judges are firm: it must be a state close to the #Netherlands
When is a trial no longer a trial? When is a defendant no longer a defendant? When is a court no longer a court?
I wrote about #Kabuga, the politics of #justice, and the significance of justice spaces, for @justiceinfo.bsky.social

🇷🇼 #Rwanda [opinion] - When is a trial no longer a trial? When is a defendant no longer a defendant? When is a court no longer a court?

The gang was all there for #Kabuga at the #IRMCT only to learn it was the last ever hearing in the #ICTY's legendary courtroom 1 where I spent a big chunk of my late twenties with accused Yugoslav war criminals @lucyjgaynor.bsky.social @janethanderson.bsky.social @mollyquell.bsky.social
A surprise end to the #Kabuga status conference.
Judge Bonomy announces that this will be the last time Courtroom 1 at the mechanism, #IRMCT, formerly the #ICTY, will be used as a Courtroom.
The last time “this storied and historic courtroom will be used”.
En route to #TheHague for yet another #Kabuga status conference.
The #IRMCT has said a recording will be available after the session (no mention of a stream).
Recent conferences have been brief, punctuated by frustration and helplessness from all trial parties, as Kabuga remains in detention.
The prosecutor at the #ICTR’s Residual Mechanism has officially requested that Félicien #Kabuga be released to #Rwanda
Kabuga - whose trial was indefinitely suspended in August 2023 - has been in detention in #TheHague ever since.
The (alleged) “interests of justice” raise their head again.
Another #Kabuga status conference tomorrow @ 14:00 CET
He remains, quite ill, in detention in the #Hague, almost 500 days since his trial was terminated.
States, including the Mechanism’s host state #NL, have refused to engage with the afterlives of the justice processes they so eagerly promote.
Cour d'appel de Paris. Audience d'examen de la demande de remise de Felicien #Kabuga au Mécanisme pour les tribunaux internationaux. Il est accusé d'avoir co organisé et financé le génocide rwandais de 1994.
A la cour d'appel de Paris, chambre de l'instruction. Audience d'extradition de Félicien #Kabuga accusé de génocide par l'ex Tribunal pénal international pour le #Rwanda
Si la cavale de #Kabuga pose la question des protections dont il a bénéficié en 🇫🇷, que dire de Agathe Kanziga veuve Habyarimana, la sans-papier la plus célèbre de France, ni jugée ni expulsée, alors que le Conseil d'Etat (5 juin 2013) lui a refusé des papiers au motif suivant ⬇️
