Jean Leonard Teganya, a former medical student accused of helping target Tutsi people during Rwanda’s 1994 genocide, was deported from the United States to Rwanda on November 9, 2026. His U.S. convictions were for immigration fraud and perjury, not genocide; he now faces separate allegations in Rwanda, whose authorities have not publicly detailed the charges.
Key Facts
Rwanda’s National Public Prosecution Authority said Teganya arrived at Kigali International Airport on November 9, 2026, with U.S. security officers and was handed to Rwandan prosecutors.
Rwanda indicted Teganya in 2014 over alleged genocide and crimes against humanity in the former Butare prefecture.
Teganya was studying medicine and training at Butare’s university teaching hospital during the 1994 genocide.
U.S. prosecutors presented evidence alleging that Teganya helped search the hospital for Tutsi patients and refugees, and was linked to killings and rapes.
Teganya left Rwanda in July 1994 and later sought asylum in Canada; after his applications were rejected, he entered the United States in 2014.
A U.S. jury convicted Teganya in 2019 of two counts of immigration fraud and three counts of perjury.
He received a 97-month prison sentence, which a federal appeals court upheld in 2021.

A 16-year-old in Australia who admitted preparing for a terrorist act told a court that online extremist content influenced him and that he used ChatGPT to research his plans. The New South Wales Supreme Court sentenced him to a three-year community corrections order, saying he had no concrete attack plan and had shown remorse.

The ministry said it had asked prosecutors to act and that Minister Sira Rego had requested an urgent meeting with TikTok representatives in Spain.
