Tharcisse Muvunyi was in the Rwandan army when ruling Hutu majority extremists killed more than 800,000 minority Tutsis and Hutu moderates in 100 days. He was arrested in the United Kingdom, sentenced to 15 years in prison in 2010 and freed two years later after time served. "Yesterday afternoon Muvunyi was found dead in the shower by one of his housemates," Muvunyi's lawyer Abbe Jolles told Reuters. Six days later, Jolles filed a request with the United Nations for Muvunyi's medical evacuation to the UK. "Muvunyi needs urgent medical care," said the request that Jolles shared with Reuters.
