Sam DenbyNARRATOR
In 2021, the US State Department released a report detailing several human rights violations, which included, quote, "unlawful or arbitrary killings by the government and forced disappearance by the government." Among those is poet and social critic Innocent Bati, who remains missing.
Sam DenbyNARRATOR
Then there's the case of Paul Rusesabagina, who's known for his role in saving thousands of lives during the genocide, as depicted in the Oscar-nominated film Hotel Rwanda, but more recently for having been kidnapped by the Rwandan government.
Sam DenbyNARRATOR
Rusesabagina was a vocal critic of the Kagame administration before he boarded a private flight from Dubai to Burundi for a speaking engagement, or so he thought.
Sam DenbyNARRATOR
Instead, he was sedated and flown against his will to Kigali, where he was detained and held in solitary confinement before the government found him guilty on terrorism-related charges and sentenced him to 25 years in prison.
