One of Rwanda's highest ranking officials involved in the country's 1994 genocide has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for his role in the killing.
Augustin Bizimungu, who was the former head of the army, was convicted by the Tanzania-based International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda alongside Augustin Ndindiliyimana, the ex-paramilitary police chief. Two other senior generals were also sentenced.
Some 800,000 ethnic Tutsis and moderate Hutus died during the genocide.
