Sacked Inspector General of Police, Gen. Kale Kayihura, has been taken to the International Criminal Court (ICC) by a group of Rwandan nationals.  Led by Mr Rugema Kayumba, the group alleges that they decided to file a criminal complaint before The Hague-based ICC court on grounds that they had failed to get justice in Uganda for a long time.

According to Daily Monitor, the group claims that between 2010 and 2017, Rwandan authorities procured services of members of the Uganda Police Force to forcefully repatriate Rwandan refugees, Ugandans of Rwandan origin and Congolese of Rwandan origin.
