The acquittal of Rwandan politician Diane Rwigara has invigorated the opposition to demand a review of cases of other politicians even as the government refuted claims that external pressure had influenced the court’s decision.
The 37-year-old accountant, who was charged with inciting insurrection and forgery, was set free alongside her mother Adeline, by the High Court in Kigali on Thursday.
