"U.S. to drop charges in '99 Uganda killings"
By Jim McElhatton
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
January 9, 2007

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "The move comes five months after U.S. District Judge Ellen Huvelle suppressed confessions by defendants Francois Karake, Leonidas Bimenyimana and Gregoire Nyaminani, who were reputed members of the Liberation Army of Rwanda.

The government's case relied heavily on the defendants' confessions, but Judge Huvelle barred prosecutors from using the statements. The judge ruled the confessions were inadmissible because evidence showed the defendants were tortured while imprisoned by Rwandan authorities. "
