HC Deb 15 March 1995 vol 256 c587W
Mrs. Liddell

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what action the international community will take to bring to justice those responsible for the massacre against the people of Tutsi origin in Rwanda in the parish of Shangi.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

UN Security Council resolution 955 of 8 November 1994 established an international criminal tribunal for Rwanda and investigators have begun work in the region. It will be for the prosecutor of the tribunal to decide who will be brought to trial.

In addition, the United Nations development programme has developed plans to help rehabilitate the Rwandan judicial system.
