Munyaneza gets life sentence in Rwandan war crimes case
A Quebec judge has sentenced Désiré Munyaneza, the first person charged under Canada’s war crimes legislation, to a life sentence with no possibility of parole for 25 years. Munyaneza “chose to kill, rape and pillage in the name of the supremacy of his ethnic group, reminding us that every time a man claims to belong to a superior race, a chosen people, humanity is in danger,” the judge wrote in a 12-page ruling.
