The body of Patrick Karegeya, the former head of Rwanda’s military intelligence and a critic of President Paul Kagame, was recently found in a hotel room in Johannesburg. It appears that he may have been strangled to death. Brian Endless, director of African Studies at Loyola University and a senior adviser to the Hotel Rwanda Rusesabagina Foundation, believes this could be a politically motivated assassination. He tells us why. Photo: The Michelangelo Towers hotel in Sandton, Johannesburg, Thursday, Jan. 2, 2014.
