Rusumo and Rukara communes are in the eastern Rwandan region of Kibungo. "Mpambara was transferred to the detention facility on Saturday," ICTR spokesman Kingsley Moghalu told Hirondelle. Mpambara allegedly had a hand in the killings that took place in Rukara commune during the genocide. At the time of his arrest, the ICTR Prosecutor did not have an indictment for Mpambara ready, and therefore requested Tanzanian police to hold him in Kigoma, pending an order for provisional detention from the ICTR. The ICTR Statute provides for provisional detention of suspects under investigation, provided a judge is satisfied that this is warranted. The period of provisional detention is 30 days, but can be extended on request to a maximum of two more thirty-day periods. GG/JC/FH (MP0626e)
