Rwandan officials Wednesday handed over the body of
Teojen Ndagijimana, a Ugandan national who was shot dead by Rwandan security
forces in Kumugu Trading Centre in Musanze District, inside Rwanda, about three
kilometres from the Uganda-Rwanda border, on Saturday.
The body was received by a Ugandan delegation that was
led by Rtd Capt Peter Mugisha, the Kisoro District Resident Commissioner, at
Chanika border.
Mr James Nsaba Buturo, the former Ethics and Integrity
Minister and Bufumbira East Member of Parliament, attended the event.
The Rwandan delegation was led by Ms Marie Chantal
Uwanyirigira, the mayor of Burera District.
The body was taken to Chahafi Health Centre IV, where
another post mortem was scheduled to be carried out before a burial at Kabingo
village, Chahafi Parish.
Ndagijimana is the fourth Ugandan to be shot dead inside
Rwanda by Rwandan forces since the Kigali government closed its border with
Uganda at Katuna in February last year, stopping the movement of goods and
people from either country.
