ICTR Official Believes Rwanda Should Host Trial Archives

An official of the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR) based in Arusha-Tanzania has noted that Rwanda should host the archives of the trial proceedings when the international court winds up in 2014.

“But the decision on the destiny of the archives shall be taken by the UN Security Council,” said Pascal Besnier, the acting Registrar of the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR).

Besnier made the remarks while in Kigali at a Press conference jointly held by Rwanda’s Prosecutor General, Martin Ngoga.

He also said ICTR had established a documentation centre on international criminal justice, and the fact that most of the key rulings can be accessed online.

Ngoga said, “We may not get 100 per cent of our bargain, but something shall be gotten. It may be a win-win situation”.
