JOHANNESBURG – Rwanda's former head of external intelligence Patrick
Karegeya has been laid to rest at the Fourways Memorial Park in Johannesburg
on Sunday. Dozens of members of his political party, the Rwandan National
Congress who are living in exile, travelled from all across the world to
attend the service and there's a high police presence in the area. This
follows concerns by the RNC that Karegeya's killers may try to assassinate
other RNC members who are in hiding. The family held each other's hands as
the pastor read out a scripture while Karegeya's coffin was lowered into the
ground. The large delegation of the Rwandan National Congress members at the
cemetery have vowed to support Leah Karegeya and her three children
following the death of her husband. The RNC also says it will conduct its
own investigation into the killing as the South African police have not made
any arrests. The pastor has described Karegeya as a brave man who stood up
to an unjust authority and called on his children to continue his mission.
Many of the former spy boss' family members remained at the grave site long
after the burial had ended. Earlier Karageya's family and members of the RNC
filled the St Mary's Chapel in Roodepoort for his memorial. Karageya's body
was found in the Michelangelo Towers in Sandton on New Year's Day. It's
believed he was strangled to death. The RNC has accused Rwanda's President
Paul Kagame of ordering the killing. Four Rwandan nationals believed to be
linked to the murder were arrested in Mozambique last week.
