Félicien Kabuga is believed to have bankrolled key Hutu supremacist militias like the Interahamwe and imported over 500,000 machetes in the leadup to the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi, which killed an estimated 800,000 to 1,000,000 people. Kabuga fled to Kenya as the genocidal regime fell and later to Paris, where he was arrested by French police in 2020. He was put on trial at The Hague for crimes against humanity, including genocide and extermination. In 2023, he was found unfit to stand trial due to vascular dementia, and he remained in custody until his death today due to his refusal to be repatriated to Rwanda.

I found out about him from Netflix’s Doc Of World’s Most Wanted during lockdowns.
Out of the 5 episodes they made, 3 of them have been captured while 2 are on the Run.
The Russian Mafia Boss and The White Widow.
