Unaccountable Case File: Rwanda’s Genocide Arms Dealers
This is the repository of documents and primary source material cited in Unaccountable 40 and 41 focussing on Ters Ehlers and BNP Paribas.
The series consists of profiles of large corporations and private individuals who are all implicated in economic crime but have never been held to account for these – or at best escaped substantive justice. The decision to focus on powerful private actors, implicated in large scale political corruption is a conscious one and mirrors the approach of Open Secrets. Many of the profiles are based on Open Secrets’ existing and ongoing research.
The Unaccountable “case files” are repositories where we have uploaded all the primary source material for our Unaccountable profiles. The material found here serves as both evidence and resources for the public. All the material is available for download unless otherwise stated.
