I have no any information regarding the training of Interahamwe,&quot; said genocide-convict Bagosora when testifying as defence witness for former Secretary General of MRND, Joseph Nzirorera.\n<\/p>\n<p >\nHe was being cross-examined by prosecution counsel, Don Webster who contended that despite the signing of a cease-fire agreement in March 1993, MRND started training Interahamwe and that investigations conducted by Human rights organizations revealed that the Rwandan Armed Forcers offered such training.\n<\/p>\n<p >\nThe prosecutor further referred to statements given to Belgian senate by the former Rwandan Gendarmerie Chief of Staff, General Augustin Ndindiliyimana after his arrest that he was an eye witness of training of&nbsp; Interahamwe in 1993. Gen. Ndindiliyimana is genocide-accused alongside three other former military officers now waiting delivery of their judgement.\n<\/p>\n<p >\nHowever, Bagosora refuted the assertion, saying that if Gen.
