Dominique Makeli, a former reporter with the state-owned Radio Rwanda who had been held since 1994 on a vague, genocide-related charge, has been freed. His release last week after 14 years was a result of his acquittal by a popular tribunal. Makeli was accused of inciting genocide in his radio reports. His health deteriorated steadily during his years in prison. (Via Reporters without Borders)
