Abstract
According to members of the PSD, the attack against Habyarimana was fomented by Augustin Bizimana. He distributed arms to civilians and drew up lists of opponents and Tutsis to be killed.
Comment
The involvement of Augustin Bizimana is quite possible. But he was not the main executor who is clearly Bagosora. This one is much more linked to the French military. Bagosora told Bruguière that he was very close to Lieutenant-Colonel J.-J. Maurin.
