Kangura

Kangura ( Kinyarwanda: she wakes up) was an extremist Hutu newspaper in Rwanda, which was founded in 1990 on the initiative of Agathe Habyarimana by Hassan Ngeze as a rival newspaper to Kanguka ( Wake up ) of the opposing RPF. The newspaper appeared in a similar presentation as Kanguka in French and Kinyarwanda and stoked in advance of the genocide in Rwanda resentment against the Tutsi.

This she described as mostly inyenzi ( " cockroaches " ) or as Inkotanyi ( " Warrior" ), which allegedly planned conspiracies against the Hutu. Next Kangura was a special issue with "Ten Hutu Commandments " out, the cohesion against the "enemies " calling on the Hutu Hutu and every traitor declared that the Tutsi married, employed or supported or spoke out against the Hutu extremist ideology.

The newspaper published lists of names of Tutsis to be killed and moderate Hutu. Such lists of names were used demonstrably during the genocide of soldiers and militias to commit massacres.

Kangura publishers Ngeze was sentenced in 2003 by the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda for his role in the genocide to life imprisonment. The Defendant appealed against the verdict. The judges of the Appeals Chamber reduced the end of 2007 the penalty to 35 years imprisonment.
