4)  PADIRI Guy THEUNIS YANDITSE KO NTA BWICANYI BWAKOREWE KURI SAINTE FAMILLE MU RWEGO RWO GUKINGIRA IKIBABA PADIRI MUNYESHYAKA NO GUHARABIKA FPR-INKOTANYI

Mu mwaka wa 1996, THEUNIS yanditse inyandiko mu kinyamakuru cy’abapadiri bera cyo mu Bufransa cyitwa Le Lien ahakana uruhare rwa Padiri Munyeshyaka muri Jenoside yakorewe Abatutsi. THEUNIS wavuye mu Rwanda ku wa 12 mata 1994, yanditse ko nta bwicanyi ubwo aribwo bwose Munyeshyaka yigeze akora mu Rwanda mu gihe cya Jenoside, kandi atari ahari ngo abone umunsi ku munsi imyitwarire ye. Padiri THEUNIS yabyanditse muri aya magambo : « Munyeshyaka nta muntu yishe mu Rwanda, nta muntu n’umwe wapfiriye ku kiriziya cya Sainte Famille » « Gushinja uyu mu Padiri icyaha cya jenoside ni ikintu kidashobora kwihanganirwa »

Umuyobozi w’abapadiri bera bo mu Bufaransa, Francois RICHARD, akimara kubona iyo nyandiko ya THEUNIS yanditse indi iyiherekeza ikwizwa mu buyobozi bwa Kiliziya gatorika mu Bufransa asaba ko bagomba gushyigikira Padiri MUNYESHYAKA kubera ko ngo ari igitambo cya politiki y’ubwicanyi ya FPR.

Nguko ukoPadiri MUNYESHYAKA yashoboye kuganza mu Bufaransa, akakirwa n’Abakirisitu babeshywe na THEUNIS, na n’ubu bakaba bakimutsimbarayeho. Twibutse ko Munyeshyaka yahamijwe icyaha cya Jenoside n’Inkiko Gacaca, akaba yarakatiwe igifungo cya burundu.

Mu kwezi kw’Ukwakira1997, THEUNIS yanditse mu kinyamakuru LA CROIX cyo mu Bufaransa ahakana Jenoside yakorewe Abatutsi.

Muri iyo nyandiko, Padiri THEUNIS yitiriye FPR ubwicanyi bwakozwe na ex-FAR n’Interahamwe, avuga ko mu gice cyagenzurwaga na FPR mu mujyi wa KIGALI ngo ariho haguye abantu magana arindwi na mirongo icyenda na babiri (792) kurusha abiciwe mu bice Guverinoma na ex-FAR bagenzuraga, avuga ko haguye abagera kuri magana atandatu (600): « imibare y’abasivili bishwe mu mpande zombi ijya kungana, ari mu bice byagenzurwaga n’abasirikare ba Leta (bageraga kuri 600), ari no mu bice byagenzurwaga na FPR kandi nyamara hari hato (792) »

THEUNIS yakomeje ashimangira ko ngo nta bwicanyi bwakorewe Abatutsi kuri Sainte Famille, ngo uretse abantu 3 gusa baguye mu Kiliziya bazize amasasu ya FPR. Ngo abandi bagera kuri 50 baguye imbere y’amashuri abanza ya Sainte Famille ku itariki 17 Kamena 1994 bishwe kubera ko FPR nayo yari yahiciye abandi bantu 50 mu rukerera rw’uwo munsi: «  nta muntu wigeze yicirwa mu kiriziya cya Sainte Famille i Kigali (…) abantu batatu gusa nibo bapfiriye mu kiriziya imbere (…) bazize ibisasu byatewe ku kiriziya na FPR(…) abageze kuri mirongo itanu (50) bishwe n’Interahamwe zihorera ku wa 17 Kamena 1994 bazize igitero cya FPR yari yagabye cyica uwo munsi abantu barenga mirongo itanu (50) mu mashuri abanza saa kenda (3h) za mu gitondo »

Mu magambo make, THEUNIS arumvisha ko nta bantu INTERAHAMWE zigeze zica kuri Sainte Famille zidatewe umujinya na FPR, ngo zishe Abatutsi zihorera.

Tariki 15Kamena 1997, hasohotse inyandiko mu kinyamakuru cyandikwa n’Abapadiri Beraburi kwezi cyitwa Bulletin d’Information Africaine, n° 326, ivuga ku kiganiro Padiri THEUNIS yari yatanze mu banyamakuru I Burayi ari kumwe na Colette BRAECKMANN na Filip REYNTJENS. Asubiza igitera intambara mu Rwanda, THEUNIS yabivuze muri aya magambo : « Ni ikintu kidahinduka. Muri rusange, Abahutu ni abanyamahoro. Bishakiraga revolusiyo itarimo amahane. Urugomo iteka ruva ku ruhande rumwe, ku ruhande rw’Abatutsi. Iteka Abatutsi nibo bashoza intambara, mbivuze ukundi nibo batuma ibintu bizamba ».

Urwo rwango rw’Abatutsi ruherekejwe n’ibikorwa byo gupfobya Jenoside yakorewe Abatutsi bya Padiri Theunis si bishya. Ni umuntu wakoranye bya hafi na Leta ya Habyarimana mu guharabika FPR. Afatanyije na mugenzi we Padiri Jef Vleugels, kuva Inkotanyi zitangiza urugamba rwo kubohoza igihugu mu Kwakira 1990, bombi bafatanyije guharabika INKOTANYI no kuvugira Leta yariho. Ubwicanyi bwakorwaga n’iyo Leta, aba bapadiri bombi babwitiriraga Inkotanyi.

No mu gihe cy’ifatwa n’ifungwa ry’ababeshyewe bitwa ibyitso, THEUNIS na VLEUGELS banditse ko FPR yari ifite koko ibyitso mu mugi wa Kigali, bityo bashyigikira politiki yo gufunga no kwica Abatutsi bazizwa kwitirirwa kuba ibyitso by’Inkotanyi.

Hagati ya 1990 na 1994, THEUNIS na VLEUGELS bafatanyije kwandika inyandiko nyinshi zituka FPR zoherezwaga i Burayi n’ahandi hose ku isi byibura buri cyumweru zigakoreshwa mu itangazamakuru mpuzamahanga. Izo nyandiko zoherezwaga mu buryo bwa Fax (telecopy) zasaga nk’aho ari ijwi rya Leta ya HABYARIMANA n’ingabo ze.
