Germany arrests Rwandan presidential aide

Rose Kabuye, a Rwandan woman sought for questioning by a French judge about what sparked her country's infamous genocide in 1994, was arrested at Frankfurt International Airport on Sunday. Kabuye is chief of protocol for Rwandan President Paul Kagame. She had accompanied him on a visit to Germany in April but was not detained then because she was under diplomatic immunity. German Federal Police did not say if Kabuye was on personal business or where she was flying from or what her destination was when she was arrested. Lef Forster, Kabuye's lawyer, told The Associated Press in Paris that Kabuye had agreed to be extradited to France, where she was expected to arrive in a few days to be questioned about the attack on the plane of former Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana in April 1994.
