Rwandan journalist Jean Leonard Rugambage was shot dead last night in front of his house in the capital, Kigali.
He was acting editor of an independent paper, Umuvugizi, that was recently suspended by the Rwandan authorities. But it continued to publish online.
The paper's chief editor, Jean Bosco Gasasira, who went into exile in Uganda in April, blamed the government. "I'm 100% sure it was the office of the national security services which shot him dead," he said.
