Hotel Rwanda hero Paul Rusesabagina on Wednesday morning told a Rwandan court that he is not Rwandan and his citizenship should be changed to Belgian in the court files.
He spoke when he appeared at the court in Kigali for his trial-in-substance on crimes related to terrorism, financing and forming illegal armed groups, arson, and kidnap.
