Army behind crash: Report

Rwandan Hutu army soldiers shot down the Hutu president's plane on the eve of the country's 1994 genocide, according to a government-commissioned inquiry that assigns blame for the event that sparked the slaughter of more than a half million people.

President Juvenal Habyarimana had been returning from talks held with a rebel group, and the soldiers and extremist Hutu politicians and military officers were opposed to a power-sharing deal, the panel said in a report made public late on Monday.
