RPF and Rwanda’s Police Urged to Stop Meddling in PS-Imberakuri Political Activities

By Maitre NTAGANDA Bernard
PS-IMBERAKURI
Founder and Chairman
May 27, 2010

PRESS RELEASE No. 005/P.S. IMB/010


Following the surprised attack led by the Commander of the Police of the City of Kigali in the company with the Representative of the Police of the District of Nyarugenge;

Referring also to the press conference held by one of the leaders of the PS Power; RPF political wing in the person of Mrs. Christine MUKABUNANI on Thursday, May 27, 2010;

The Social Party IMBERAKURI would like to inform the Rwandan population and the international community in general and the IMBERAKURI in particular, the following:

ARTICLE 1:

The Social Party IMBERAKURI condemns the police command, which continues to meddle in political activities in order to undermine the Social Party IMBERAKURI since its inception. The Social Party IMBERAKURI especially condemns the police commander in the City of Kigali with the Representative of the Police of the District of Nyarugenge who, accompanied with a huge number of policemen tried to enter the permanence of our party on May 26, 2010 to conduct warrantless searches. This irresponsible act has caused unrest and confrontations with militants of the Social Party IMBERAKURI who have come to participate in a press conference on that day.

ARTICLE 2:

The Social Party IMBERAKURI leadership continues to urge the Kigali Government led by the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) that the struggles it has itself initiated within the Social Party IMBERAKURI must be resolved peacefully according to the laws instead of using violent means like what happened February 21, 2010 when the Social Party IMBERAKURI was attacked by a gang of criminals with the connivance of the police. The PS IMBERAKURI leadership found that one of the leaders of the PS Power; RPF political wing, Mrs. Christine MUKABUNANI in her press conference on May 27, 2010, stated that she was taking the path of the courts to find a solution to the problems created by RPF in our party. This is a sign of desperation as she does no longer know who to turn to.

ARTICLE 3:

The Social Party IMBERAKURI is very concerned by the new methods adopted by the Kigali Government which consist in splitting the political parties opposed to the RPF into two rival factions to hide its real intentions which are to liquidate its opponents and finally turn and criminalize the rival side for the crime. The population of Rwanda and the international community must not forget so soon that the parties created by the MRND, labeled as POWER parties, have played a great role in liquidation of different politicians and have contributed significantly to the tragedy experienced by the country particularly in 1994.

ARTICLE 4:

The Social Party IMBERAKURI is deeply concerned by the diabolical plan hatched by the Government in Kigali led by the RPF to imprison Me NTAGANDA Bernard, Founder and Chairman of the Party PS- IMBERAKURI. Currently he is being hunted down on the pretext that he would have kidnapped journalists came to attend the press conference on May 26, 2010 as stated by the spokesman of the police, who knowingly omitted to mention that everyone was locked inside the meeting room for safety reasons. The Social Party IMBERAKURI would like to recall that no one has complained to the police for this incident.

Done in Kigali, on May 27, 2010

Maitre NTAGANDA Bernard (Se)
PS-IMBERAKURI
Founder and Chairman
