Martel, who is defending genocide suspect, Hassan Ngeze, added that other parts of the testimony were \"based on rumours, street talk and caf\u00e9 talk\".\n<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p  >\nThe book referred to is: ' Rwanda: Les m\u00e9dias du g\u00e9nocide' (Rwanda: The media of genocide) published in 1995. \"No, that is totally incorrect\", Chr\u00e9tien strongly responded. He said that his expert report was a result of an extensive study with three other researchers. He however admitted that the report would have been better had he and his colleagues had sufficient time to prepare. The 500-page expert report presented to court on Monday by Chr\u00e9tien was co-authored by Rwandan historians Marcel Kabanda and Joseph Ngarambe. French journalist Jean-Fran\u00e7ois Dupaquier also contributed to the report. Chr\u00e9tien was testifying as an expert witness on the role of the media in the Rwandan genocide. He told the court that he had been working on the African Great Lakes region, a region including Rwanda, for over 40 years. He is a researcher at Centre National de Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) in Paris. Chr\u00e9tien has completed his testimony. The trial is before Trial Chamber One of the ICTR, composed of Judges Navanethem Pillay of South Africa (Presiding), Erik M\u00f8se of Norway and Asoka de Zoysa Gunawardana of Sri Lanka.
