Haruna Imaniraguha

Known as simply HM, he is listed as a co-director owning 50,300 shares in the company. He confirmed that he was a shareholder and director.

Felicien Kabuga

He is accused of financing the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. The multi-billionaire was on the run for 26 years before his capture in Asnières-sur-Seine, near Paris On 16 May 2020. He was 87 at the time. 

According to a report appearing on the Standard, the wealthy Rwandese reportedly oversaw the daily operations of the transport company and presented himself as the owner when he secretly lived in the country. 

Bosco was his close confidante and they would meet regularly. 

“He was a regular visitor at the service station where he would meet up with Bosco, with whom they would spend time together,” the Standard reported.

What does RWAKEN stand for? Rwanda-Kenya.
