BBC, 20 Sep 2021
Paul Rusesabagina, who was portrayed in a film as a life-saving hero during the Rwandan genocide, has been convicted of terrorism by a court in Rwanda.
The 67-year-old was found guilty of backing a rebel group from exile which killed nine civilians in 2018.
His family have alleged that he was taken to Rwanda by force. They have also said he did not have a fair trial.
