A man accused of involvement in Rwanda’s brutal genocide in 1994 – who is alleged to have participated in mob attacks that killed members of the Tutsi minority – is living in Australia, having never faced court. Another man also accused of involvement in the genocide is also believed by Rwandan authorities to be in the country.

A year-long Guardian/Four Corners investigation can reveal that the two men, who were found by Rwanda’s transitional justice process to have been involved in deadly mob attacks against civilians during the genocide, are being sought by the Rwandan government for arrest, pending possible extradition.
