They should reduce it. We are making an analysis on the matter and we will file a motion to seek further reduction of the number to make it realistic,&quot; Senior Appeals Council Wallace Kapaya told the Hirondelle News Agency on Tuesday.\n<\/p>\n<p >\nAccording to sources, the defence filed the new list of witnesses that would be called to support the testimony of Ngirabatware following an order by a Trial Chamber that it should submit an updated number no later that March 4, 2011 before resumption of the trial on June 6, 2011.\n<\/p>\n<p >\nNgirabatware, who hails from what used to be the Nyamyumba Commune, Gisenyi prefecture (North of Rwanda), is charged with genocide or in the alternative conspiracy to commit genocide, direct and public incitement to commit genocide and extermination and rape as crimes against humanity.\n<\/p>\n<p >\n<p >\nHe is the son-in-law of Felicien Kabuga, the alleged sponsor of the 1994 genocide, who is still on the run.
