Michel Bagaragaza's case will be finally transfered from the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda [ICTR] to The Netherlands. Since early 2006, the ICTR Prosecutor has been trying to transfer Bagaragaza, a close aide to the former Rwandan president who voluntarily surrendered to the Tribunal in August 2005, to a national jurisdiction for trial. However, the trial chamber, on May 19, 2006, rejected the prosecutor's initial choice of Norway because that country had not incorporated the crime of genocide into domestic law. After that, the Prosecutor next proposed transfer to The Netherlands and the trial chamber finally approved that on April 13.
