A court in Paris, France, on Wednesday, May 27, rejected the request by lawyers' of Genocide suspect Felicien Kabuga to release him on bail as the initial judicial process continues in France.
Kabuga again appeared in court on Wednesday, a week after his lawyers were granted more time to prepare their case.
Representatives of the Collectif des Parties Civiles pour le Rwanda (CPCR), which works to bring Genocide suspects in France to book, were in court.
His lawyers told the court that he is too old, and pleaded that he needs more medical examination given his age and frailty.
After his interrogation by prosecution early last week, Kabuga also made his first court appearance in the Paris Court of Appeal, on May 20.
