The United States has condemned the killing of a former Rwandan spy chief Patrick Karegeya who was found dead in a luxury Johannesburg hotel, and voiced concern over a threatening statement by Rwandan strongman Paul Kagame.
Karegeya, who was a fierce critic of Kagame who had spent the past several years in exile, was found with marks on the neck, South African police said, indicating he might have been strangled.
