The Rwandan government has expressed intentions to have former Congolese warlord Gen Laurent Nkunda released from a security detention facility to enable him return to his motherland.
Nkunda, who previously served as a high ranking officer in the Congolese army after the overthrow of President Mobutu, was arrested on January 22, 2009, during a meeting with Rwandan officers from the border town of Gisenyi.
The location of his detention centre remains unclear.
Chimpreports has learned that during a Security Council briefing at United Nations headquarters in New York, United States on July 7, Rwanda said DRC must put in place incentives and honour its international agreements to allow the return of rebels including Nkunda.
