Rwanda's Planned Assassinations in Sweden



According to a pending court case in Sweden, a Burundian national in Sweden was spying on dissident Rwandans in the country with plans on assassinating them [details herehere and here].The man, calling himself Emmanuel Habiyambere is actually named Amaible Rubagenga and lives in Sweden. To summarize the articles: this fellow was to gather,"information about journalists, persons active in a Rwandan association and writers with a critical attitude towards the Rwandan State." He is accused of an "obtaining information by asking questions about the persons background in their home country, contacts with like-minded people and their political sympathies."
We are told that, "The prosecutor will also present evidence in the form of telephone calls between Emmanuel Habiyambere and government representatives in Rwanda, Internet searches, the Service's summary of intelligence in Rwanda, transcripts of intercepted calls and other materials."
These messages were conducted between him and some senior officials Rwanda Defense Forces,  he was also routine communication with President Kagame's killing squad commonly known as the Directorate of Rwanda's Military Intelligence.
Ronnie Jacobsson concluded his remarks by...saying that "The Rwandan Intelligence and security Services have showed that it has the capacity to assassinate Rwandan refugees in Sweden due to Kigali's strength...in trying to murder President Kagame's critics"
Some details from the articles follow (some of them are via Google Translate):
Between 2010 and 2011, the man had collected information "secretly and fraudulently" about Rwandans living in Sweden, prosecutor Ronnie Jacobsson said.
The man spied on dissidents including journalists, writers, and those active in Rwandan associations.
According to prosecutors, the 44-year-old had been "given the mission from high-ranking military officials in Rwanda to gather information about dissidents' political opinions, including where they live in Sweden, their telephone numbers, and other background information".
According to prosecutor Ronnie Jacobsson, the Prosecution Office for safety, the business has also meant that Emmanuel Habiyambere received orders from high-ranking military officers in Rwanda. The assignments must be done in order to obtain information about dissident people's political opinions, their place of residence in Sweden, phone numbers, and more.
He then coded the intelligence before sending it back to representatives of the Rwandan regime, prosecutors claimed, based on evidence gathered from intercepted phone calls between the 44-year-old and Rwandan representatives.
Sweden is wise to this kind of Rwandan perfidy:
Sweden's foreign ministry has previously accused Rwandan intelligence agencies of being active in Sweden.
A 2010 foreign ministry report called Rwandan intelligence agencies "goal-oriented", saying they use "basically methods available to aggressive services" in carrying out orders from political powers in Rwanda.
