A French court rules that the Rwandan man accused of having bankrolled the country's genocide can be transferred to a UN tribunal to stand trial. Félicien Kabuga was arrested near Paris earlier this year after 25 years on the run. Also, Cameroon is accused of becoming increasingly repressive as hundreds of opposition protesters remain in jail following their arrest at anti-government demonstrations last week. And several people appear in court in Paris after trying to take African artwork from a museum in the French capital.
