[Rwanda Forum] Rwanda Fed False Intelligence to U.S. and Interpol As It Pursued Political Dissidents Abroad - OCCRP



"Poison Pen Information"

Written in the build-up to Kagame's re-election to a third seven-year term, the 2015 FBI report warned top American diplomats that Rwanda was using its intelligence services to spread disinformation in the U.S. about Rwandan asylum seekers and opposition members. Its tactics included "providing poison pen [intentionally false or misleading] information to U.S. law enforcement agencies concerning alleged criminal violations through the use of double agents, as well as attempting to manipulate U.S. government immigration law and the Interpol Red Notice System," the FBI concluded.
