Doctor accused of 1994 Rwanda genocide offences to face trial in UK
Dr Vincent Brown, a 65-year-old medical doctor living in north London, is set to face trial in the UK regarding offences connected to the 1994 Rwanda genocide. He is the first person in the UK to be charged over the genocide, facing allegations of directing or encouraging the deaths of Tutsis. During a pre-trial hearing at the Old Bailey, a provisional trial date was scheduled for October 2027. Dr Brown denies any wrongdoing and is expected to enter a formal not guilty plea at a future hearing.
