We have not
accused, judged or abandoned Ms. Victoire INGABIRE
After the publication of our Press Release on the Withdrawal of our
membership
from the Permanent Consultative Council (PCC), dated 15th June 2010, we
have
noted with great concern that several media houses have misinterpreted
our
message by assuming that we have accused, judged and abandoned
Ms.Victoire
INGABIRE. We would like to make the following clarifications:
1. We are not accusing, judging or abandoning Ms.Victoire INGABIRE, we
believe
that she is still innocent in the eyes of the law. We have not said
that she is
the one behind the Coalition of Democratic Forces: CDF. No one should
misinterpret us.
2. Withdrawing from PCC did not mean that we are accusing or convicting
FDU
Inkingi on any criminal activity, we wanted these accusations which
kept on
coming in different forms to first be made clear.
3. We call upon the Rwandan Government to accord her a quick and fair
trial.
4. We still stand with all the statements we signed while still in the
PCC and
have retracted the previous statement. In that case we have resumed our
membership in the PCC after the three Parties have sat down and fully
discussed
and resolved the previous concerns.
5. More details will be availed soon in a joint communiqué
to be signed by all
the three parties.
