The remains of 2,073 victims of the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda were accorded a befitting burial on Tuesday in Ngoma Genocide Memorial in Southern Province.

The remains were retrieved from mass graves in Ngoma village following a tip-off from a construction worker in October last year.
