A Kigali court on Tuesday ruled that it will proceed with the appeals hearing in the case of ‘Hotel Rwanda’ hero Paul Rusesabagina after concluding that legal steps were taken to summon him without success.
He was not present or represented on January 17 when the court was due to start hearing an appeal filed by the prosecution and other parties in the case where Rusesabagina was convicted and sentenced to 25 years in prison for terror.
