Rwandan President Paul Kagame cannot be sued on U.S. soil for allegedly masterminding the 1994 assassinations of two African leaders, the 10th Circuit ruled.
The widows of Rwandan president Juvenal Habyarimana and Burundi president Cyprien Ntarymira said in a federal complaint that Kagame gave the order to shoot down a plane carrying their husbands.
