description: "Georges Anderson Nderubumwe Rutaganda was a Rwandan convicted war criminal and the second vice-president of the Rwandan Hutu militia Interahamwe. Rutaganda played a crucial role in the Rwandan genocide of 1994. Prosecutor James Stewart stated that \"Without Georges Rutaganda, the Rwandan genocide would not have functioned the way it did.\" He was on radio RTLM in Kigali in 1994, encouraging Interahamwe Militia to exterminate all Tutsis. It was alleged that Rutaganda captured, raped, and tortured Tutsi women in Interahamwe hideouts in Kigali. Other accounts state that Rutaganda captured Tutsi prostitutes, believing them to be witches."
