On June 24, 2021, a Rwandan court sentenced Ayabatwa, Scratch Watson, and Annick Mutambuka for misappropriation and condemned them to a 10-year detainment notwithstanding RWF2, 272, 642, 655 or US$2.2 million each. The Rwanda government sought after this legal maneuver in the wake of losing the UTC case at the EACJ. On November 28, 2020, EACJ ruled that the Rwandan government’s capture of UTC in 2013 and the ensuing unloading of the shopping center in 2017 at half of its cost were illegal. EACJ requested the Rwanda government to represent the rental and deal continues acknowledged from the UTC and to remunerate the proprietors of the shopping center for general harms. Both the complainant and the litigant pursued the court’s choice. Ayabatwa pursued the choice since UTC was not gotten back to him as its legitimate owner. By no means will this fundamental right be compromised.

• The latest maneuver by the government of Rwanda is outrageous. What we are seeing here is a government that illegally snatched a resource of a resident, sold it for not exactly 50% of its cost, lost a case in a court of law, pursued the case, and retried the case in a homegrown court. Ayabatwa will have no part of this, as he made sense of:
• “It is presently a long time since the Rwandan government illegally held onto my business. Be that as it may, we show restraint. As is often said, the wheels of equity turn gradually, yet grind incredibly fine. UTC shopping center will be recovered by its legitimate owners as per the rule of law. To that end we pursued the EACJ judgment despite the fact that the Court ruled in support of ourselves. Reality generally wins.”
