3.11            Shooting of Charles Ukobizaba 

3.11.1        Prosecution

362.    The Prosecution submits that in the course of the attack at the Complex on 16 April, Gérard Ntakirutimana shot and killed Charles Ukobizaba, the hospital accountant. [503] The Prosecution relies on the testimonies of Witnesses HH and GG and submits that these two witnesses are reliable. Their testimonies are mutually corroborative in material respects and are in conformity with their previous statements. [504]

3.11.2        Defence

363.    According to the Defence, the evidence of Witnesses GG and HH is not credible. There are discrepancies between their testimonies and their previous statements to investigators, as well as contradictions between the testimonies of the two witnesses. The Defence argues that these witnesses form part of a political campaign against the two Accused. The Defence also submits that the only other Prosecution witnesses claiming to have seen Gérard Ntakirutimana at the Complex in the course of the attack on 16 April, namely Witnesses YY and SS, placed him at different locations during the time period when Ukobizaba is said to have been shot (i.e. around noon). Moreover, it follows from the evidence of several Defence witnesses that Gérard Ntakirutimana was in Gishyita township at around noon on 16 April. [505]

3.11.3        Discussion

364.    The allegation that Gérard Ntakirutimana shot Charles Ukobizaba, a Tutsi who was the hospital accountant, relies on the testimony of Witnesses GG and HH. The Chamber will first summarize the testimony of the witnesses referred to by the parties.

Witness GG

365.    Witness GG testified that he saw Gérard Ntakirutimana shoot Ukobizaba in the hospital courtyard. Although the witness was unsure as to the time of day the incident occurred, he said it was in the middle of the day, "when there was a lot of sunshine". Upon returning from the chapel, Witness GG heard the Accused call out to Ukobizaba. Gérard Ntakirutimana was alone at the time, and he was carrying a pistol. He shot Ukobizaba in the chest, and the victim fell on his back. He then took a set of keys from Ukobizaba’s waist belt. Following this, the witness "immediately" went to hide in the surgery room and did not see anything that happened subsequently. [506]

Witness HH

366.    Witness HH testified that between noon and 1 p.m., from the "big room" of one of the buildings belonging to the hospital, which faced Ukobizaba’s office, he saw Ukobizaba standing with Gérard Ntakirutimana about 20 metres away, in the hospital courtyard, near the parking lot. [507] The witness estimated that Ukobizaba was between 15 and 20 metres from the main entrance to the building housing his office. He testified that the Accused and Ukobizaba were facing and talking to each other, although the witness could not hear what they were saying. The Accused had a pistol. Witness HH saw Ukobizaba give something to Gérard Ntakirutimana, which the witness presumed was the key to the victim’s office. The witness testified that he observed Ukobizaba standing still for a very short time before he heard a gunshot and saw Ukobizaba fall, although he later said he did not know how many times Ukobizaba was shot. Witness HH concluded that it was Gérard Ntakirutimana who shot Ukobizaba "because there was nobody else near or close by to these people, and … I had just seen Dr. Ntakirutimana with a gun, and he was aiming at him". [508] At the time Ukobizaba was shot, there were other persons in the hospital courtyard, according to the witness, who were also engaged in killing refugees, but those others were not shooting when Ukobizaba was shot. However, Witness HH did hear gunshots at the time of the incident, although he was not clear whether they came from far away or from nearby buildings. He testified that the Accused was dressed in training clothes worn over a T-shirt. After shooting the Accused headed in the direction of the victim’s office. The witness did not know why the Accused had gone to Ukobizaba’s office, though he testified that when he visited the office at night after the killings had stopped he found it ransacked. [509]

Other Witnesses

367.    Witness YY testified that he saw the Accused shooting at people between 8 a.m. and 2.00 or 3.00 p.m. [510] Witness SS claimed to have seen Gérard Ntakirutimana shooting at him in the forest some time before noon, on the eastern side of the Complex. [511] The Defence submits also that Gérard Ntakirutimana was in Gishyita township at around noon on 16 April and refers to the testimonies of Witnesses 25, 4, 32, Nyirahakizimana, and the two Accused. Their testimonies will be considered in connection with the alibi of the Accused (see below).

368.    The Chamber notes that there are some minor discrepancies between the testimonies of Witnesses GG and HH. For example, while Witness GG testified that the Accused shot the victim, then took the keys from him, Witness HH maintained that: "The Doctor asked the accountant to give him the keys and then he shot him." [512]

369.    The Chamber further notes that in his written statement of 20 June 1996 Witness GG gave a different account of how the Accused shot the victim. ("I saw that they were holding the accountant of the hospital. … After that I saw that Dr. Gérard Ntakirutimana killed Ukobizaba with a gun.") Moreover, Witness GG testified that he was in the open when he witnessed the shooting, then went to hide, whereas his statement suggests that he observed the incident through a window. In court, the witness distanced himself from his prior statement, saying that it must have been recorded improperly. After having observed the witness giving evidence the Chamber accepts his testimony that he was in the open air when he observed the event and that no one held Ukobizaba before he was killed. It notes that the witness maintained that the shooting took place before the keys were taken away. [513]

370.    As for Witness HH, the Chamber notes that in his written statement of 2 April 1996, he observed the Accused shoot the victim from a hiding place in the "ceiling of the last hospital building". In apparent contrast, during testimony he said that he had witnessed the shooting from the room in this building prior to hiding in the ceiling. Witness HH testified that there had been a misunderstanding on the part of the investigators, not inconsistency on his part. [514] The witness was cross-examined extensively on this issue. He explained that he hid in the building from around noon on 16 April to 2 a.m. on 17 April, that some of his observations were made through the perforated holes in the ceiling, whereas other observations, including the shooting of Ukobizaba, were made from the ground floor. The Chamber has assessed the testimony of Witness HH carefully and does not consider that the declaration in the written statement reduces the credibility of this part of his testimony. Moreover, the Chamber is not persuaded by the Defence’s submission that it is unlikely that Witness HH would be able to see, from the specified window in the building he identified, the area where he claims the shooting took place. The witness insisted that nothing obstructed his view, and the incident took place in the hospital courtyard and not in the parking lot.

371.    The Chamber finds that even if there are some variations between the accounts of Witnesses GG and HH, there are overwhelming and convincing similarities that cannot be overlooked. Both witnesses are in agreement as to the approximate time of day (around noon) and location of the shooting (the hospital courtyard); both witnessed the Accused with a pistol immediately before the shooting; both maintained that the Accused was not in the company of any third person at the time; both observed the Accused and the victim in close proximity to one another, facing each other; both saw the Accused shoot the victim while facing him; and both saw the Accused take a set of keys or other objects from the victim. The observational conditions were good: the event happened in daylight and the Accused and the victim were known to the witnesses.

372.    In the Chamber’s view, minor differences in the two witnesses’ accounts of the Ukobizaba incident do nothing to detract from the striking corroboration. The Defence, while claiming that Gérard Ntakirutimana was in Gishyita at the time of this incident, does not contest that the hospital accountant, Ukobizaba, was shot and killed around noon at the hospital on 16 April 1994.

373.    In the Chamber’s view, the testimonies of Witnesses GG and HH concerning the killing of Ukobizaba appeared credible. Other issues relating to the credibility of Witness HH do not reduce his credibility in the present context. [515] In assessing the credibility of Witness GG, the Chamber is aware that a number of allegations, mainly relating to Bisesero, were brought up by the witness during his testimony and not mentioned in his previous statements. These issues are discussed elsewhere. [516] In the present context the Chamber observes that the number of new allegations are likely the fault of the scope of the investigator’s questions and should not be a significant factor in determining this witness’s credibility. Any minor variations that were present in his written statements were adequately explained by the witness at trial and appeared reasonable, in light of the circumstances surrounding these events, difficulties with translation, and the elapsed time. Whether the Chamber can make use of new evidence, about which the Defence has not had prior notice, is a different question and will be discussed below. Overall, Witness GG remained consistent in his description of events given under solemn declaration and was able to describe his proximity to the Accused (albeit without always being precise as to the distance) when asked about the events at the Complex, Murambi, and Muyira.

374.    Before making a final finding the Chamber will consider Gérard Ntakirutimana’s account that he remained in Gishyita throughout 16 April.

3.11.4 Alibi for the Remainder of 16 April 1994 (from 9.00 a.m.)

375.    As discussed above (see 3.8), the Prosecution conceded that Elizaphan Ntakirutimana left the Complex before the attack commenced. The Prosecution also conceded that Gérard Ntakirutimana drove with his father, other members of his family, and a number of other persons to Gishyita township, where they took shelter in the CCDFP building. However, the Prosecution’s case is that Gérard Ntakirutimana returned to the Complex "sometime after 9.30 a.m." on 16 April. The Prosecution alleges that other "Hutu employees" also returned to the Complex after 9.30 a.m., including pastor Gakwerere, pastor Ushizimpumu, and Mathias Ngirinshuti. [517]

376.    The above concessions by the Prosecution imply that if Gérard Ntakirutimana took part in the attack at the Complex, it was not until "sometime after 9.30 a.m.", when he allegedly returned to the Complex from Gishyita. Therefore, the Accused’s alibi for the remainder of 16 April (for his alibi concerning the early morning of that day, see 3.8.3(e) above) need only cover the period from "sometime after 9.30 a.m." onwards.

377.    Gérard Ntakirutimana testified that after arriving in Gishyita he remained there throughout the day. [518] He also claimed to have remained in Gishyita on 17 April. It was only the next day, 18 April, that he went to Mugonero to assess the situation. [519] The evidence of other Defence witnesses has been introduced in support of this alibi.

378.    Witness 4 testified that he travelled with the two Accused and others to Gishyita on 16 April. There the group took shelter in a communal building. [520] Neither Accused left the vicinity of that building on 16 April, according to the witness. More generally, the witness testified that he saw Elizaphan Ntakirutimana and Gérard Ntakirutimana "every day": "it would be a good number of times. I saw them all of the time. … We were always together." He claimed that neither Accused left the vicinity of the communal building in Gishyita before the end of April 1994. Moreover, "I saw the vehicles [of the Accused] there all of the time". [521] The Chamber notes that Witness 4 was incorrect to claim that Gérard Ntakirutimana never left the vicinity of Gishyita township until the end of April. According to the Accused, he left Gishyita for short periods of time, taking his vehicle, the first such departure occurring on 18 April. [522] Other Defence evidence contradicts Witness 4. Therefore, the Chamber finds Witness 4 to have given unreliable testimony. The witness did not testify to the amount of time he allegedly spent with Gérard Ntakirutimana on 16 April. There is a complete lack of detail on this point. In the Chamber’s view, Witness 4’s testimony does not create a reasonable possibility that Gérard Ntakirutimana remained in Gishyita throughout the remainder of the day of 16 April.

379.    Witness 32 testified that he stayed in the CCDFP building in Gishyita with the two Accused and 20 to 30 other persons from 16 April until the end of the month. [523] "I saw Pastor Ntakirutimana and his son every day. We were together every day in Gishyita." [524] "They never left that place, if my memory does not fail me." [525] The witness also spent time with his friends: "Sometimes when we got bored sitting in one place for a long time, young as we were, we moved around, we went to the centre [of Gishyita] and we returned." [526] Later he conceded that he simply did not know whether Gérard Ntakirutimana had ever left Gishyita during this period. [527] In the Chamber’s opinion, Witness 32’s testimony does not support Gérard Ntakirutimana’s alibi for 16 April.

380.    Royisi Nyirahakizimana, wife of Elizaphan Ntakirutimana, testified that the group with whom she had left Mugonero stayed in the Gishyita "reception hall" for two weeks, from 16 April until the end of the month. [528] During that time, other than cooking outdoors, no one went much further than the "threshold at the door". [529] She testified that she saw Gérard Ntakirutimana every day during the two weeks. [530] However, she also conceded that he left Gishyita twice to get food. The Accused was absent also on a third occasion, for thirty minutes to an hour on an unspecified day "about a week after the war started", when "a soldier came and took him along in a vehicle". [531] Witness Nyirahakizimana did not specifically address Gérard Ntakirutimana’s whereabouts on 16 April; therefore no reasonable doubt is raised by the testimony of this witness.

381.    Elizaphan Ntakirutimana testified that he remained in Gishyita until the group’s departure at the end of the month. [532] During the period 16 April to 27, 28, or 29 April 1994, "Gérard went to Ngoma in order to look for provisions there. He went … with two pastors who went … for the same purpose"; and "Gérard once again went to Ngoma". The witness said: "I do not remember when he left; however, I do remember that he came back with two young boys whom he had found near the bodies of their mothers. … It was a few days after our arrival in Gishyita." [533] "The first time he brought provisions and brought the children, and then he left for the second time … to bring provisions. And after that he did not leave again." [534] Both trips took place in the first week after their arrival in Gishyita. [535] Like his wife, Elizaphan Ntakirutimana did not specifically address Gérard Ntakirutimana’s whereabouts on 16 April; therefore no reasonable doubt is raised by his testimony either.

382.    Witness 25 testified that on 15 April he drove from his village to Kibuye town. [536] The next day, around noon, he left the town to return to his village. [537] Reaching Gishyita township between 1.00 and 1.30 p.m., he was stopped at a roadblock and then permitted to proceed, but the witness did not leave immediately. He saw the two Accused, pastors Gakwerere and Ushizimupumu, as well as other people he knew: "[I]t was on the Sabbath, which is a day for prayers. … So, I was surprised to see more than two pastors at the commune office on the Sabbath." [538] The witness further specified that he had seen those persons from a distance of between 80 and 100 metres. [539] He claimed to have continued to observe them over a period of a few minutes, before going on his way. [540] He explained why he did not approach the group which included the two Accused: "I had consumed some alcohol. That is forbidden in our religion. Therefore, I did not want the pastors to know that I had been drinking." [541] Under the circumstances described, the Chamber finds Witness 25’s alleged observation of Gérard Ntakirutimana at Gishyita between 1.00 and 1.30 p.m. on 16 April to be unreliable.

383.    There is no other evidence to support Gérard Ntakirutimana’s claim that he did not leave Gishyita for the remainder of 16 April. The Chamber does not find that the Accused’s word on this matter makes it reasonably possibly true that he was not at the Complex at the time when Witnesses GG and HH placed him there.

3.11.5 Finding

384.    On the basis of the evidence adduced by the Prosecution and having considered the submission of alibi for 16 April after 9.00 a.m. the Chamber finds that Gérard Ntakirutimana killed Charles Ukobizaba by shooting him from a short distance in the chest in the Mugonero Hospital courtyard around midday on 16 April 1994. [542] The fact that the Accused was observed in other locations by Witness YY (between 8.00 a.m. and 2.00 or 3.00 p.m.) and SS (some time before noon) does not exclude his presence during the shooting of Ukobizaba.

3.12            Shooting of Witness SS [543]

3.12.1         Prosecution

385.    The Prosecution’s case is that on the afternoon of 16 April Witness SS went from the ESI Chapel past the girls’ dormitory and into a forest looking for safety. Upon entering the forest he came across Gérard Ntakirutimana in the company of other armed attackers, some of whom he was able to identify. The witness testified that he was shot at by the Accused as he ran away. He was not, in view of the circumstances, able to estimate the distance between himself and the Accused, explaining that he was not in a state of mind to take such measurements. The Prosecution submits that this explanation is reasonable and notes the witness’s claim that the trees of the forest did not block his view and that the witness knew the Accused well. [544]

3.12.2        Defence

386.    The Defence submits that Witness SS’s testimony is not believable. His evidence was contradictory. He testified first that none of the thirty attackers he saw with Gérard Ntakirutimana had guns, then stated that they were armed with "guns, machetes and clubs" and after questions finally asserted that those chasing him were armed with traditional weapons.

387.    The Defence also observes that, according to Witness SS’s account, he was running for his life through a forest. In order to bolster his story, the witness testified that after he was shot at he saw the Accused’s gun smoking; this is how he claimed to have been certain that it was the Accused who shot at him. However, in an interview with African Rights published ten months before his first interview with Prosecution investigators, Witness SS made no mention of this incident with Gérard Ntakirutimana or indeed of the Accused’s presence at the Complex on 16 April. The Defence argues that Witness SS is not credible and maintains that Gérard Ntakirutimana was in Gishyita at the time of the attack. [545]

3.12.3        Discussion

388.    Witness SS described how he fled the Complex before noon on 16 April. He wanted to go into the "church" where people had been killed but there were assailants there. The witness decided to turn and pass by the ESI’s girl’s dormitory into a forest. At first he was alone in the forest and heading towards Kukanyinya (ten minutes’ walk from the Complex). Then he came across Gérard Ntakirutimana. [546] The witness was not able to estimate the distance between himself and the Accused either in metres or by the number of trees separating them: [547] "I cannot give you an estimate using this room, because there are no trees, there are no bushes in this room. It’s impossible for me." He explained that "[a]t that point in time I wasn’t in a state of mind of being able to judge distance because I was fleeing." [548]

389.    Witness SS testified that the Accused was in front of a large group of attackers among whom he recognized one Ngabonzima and an artist named Jacques. [549] They were coming from the direction of Kukanyinya and heading for the Complex. Witness SS said that he saw Gérard Ntakirutimana’s "face and I recognised him". He testified that the trees did not block his view "but I was going through the trees because I was fleeing, and I was trying to hide behind the trees while I was looking … to ensure that there was no danger which could surprise me … the trees were not very close together and one could run very easily through the forest". The Accused was holding a gun in his hand. It was "a long gun because I could see that gun from a distance", but he did not have time to see whether the other two men he recognized were armed. [550] He could not remember what the Accused was wearing. [551]

390.    The witness faced the attackers only briefly: "I just took a look at them … and … I turned left and fled". [552] As he was running, Gérard Ntakirutimana allegedly shot at him but missed, forcing him to change direction; the witness turned left and reached a place known as Mubyisi before going to Nganzo and on to Gitwe Hill. [553] Questioned as to why he believed the Accused was the one who shot at him, Witness SS replied: "My testimony is that I saw his gun smoking after he shot. I never said that I saw the other assailants carrying … guns." [554] In reference to his prior statement of 18 December 2000, according to which he saw that the attackers had, in plural, "guns, machetes and clubs", Witness SS explained: "I was saying that the attackers had guns because Dr. Gérard was carrying a gun". [555] His prior statement to investigators gave a distance of approximately 40 metres between himself and the Accused at the time of the shooting. The witness explained that the investigators conducting the interview were seated by a window: "I showed them outside the window … the approximate distance. That was much easier because I was showing them somewhere outside. In our situation now we are in a room and it is more difficult." [556]

391.    Witness SS said he had known Gérard Ntakirutimana for a long time. "I knew that he was a doctor at the hospital and that he was the son of Elizaphan Ntakirutimana. … I would say that I had seen him many times because there is a place through which he passed when he was going to work and that’s where I would see him." The witness would also see the Accused at the hospital when members of his family went there for treatment, although he himself was never treated by the Accused. [557] The Chamber accepts that Witness SS knew Gérard Ntakirutimana by sight.

392.    The Chamber observes that Witness SS did not claim to have seen Gérard Ntakirutimana shoot at him. The witness’s testimony is that after coming upon the Accused in a forest, allegedly leading a group of attackers, Witness SS "turned … and fled" through the trees. As he was running, he was shot at. The witness’s prior statement contains the words: "I saw he [the Accused] shot at me." But that was not the witness’s testimony in court, where his account was that after a shot was fired he glimpsed back and saw the Accused’s weapon "smoking". At that point the witness would have been more than 40 metres’ distance from the Accused. The Chamber is not convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that the evidence shows that Gérard Ntakirutimana shot at Witness SS, even if the witness insisted that the Accused was the only person in the group armed with a gun. The witness did not claim he saw the Accused aiming at him with his gun. Nor did he describe what other persons in the group were doing at the time the shot was fired. The Chamber is not persuaded that the witness reliably observed "smoke" coming from the Accused’s gun.

393.    It follows that the Prosecution has not proved that Gérard Ntakirutimana shot at Witness SS. However, the Chamber is convinced, on the basis of the observation made by Witness SS, that the Accused participated in the attack, that he was armed and that he was in the company of other armed attackers. This finding falls under paragraph 4.8 of the Indictment, according to which the Accused is alleged to have participated in the attack at the Mugonero Complex on 16 April.
