A Rwandan genocide suspect on the run for 17 years has been arrested in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo.

Bernard Munyagishari is accused of being a militia leader who masterminded the killing of Tutsis and moderate Hutus in Gisenyi in 1994.

He was caught in an operation mounted by the Congolese army in collaboration with a tracking team from the UN court trying genocide suspects.

Some 800,000 ethnic Tutsis and moderate Hutus died in the 100-day genocide. Nine other Rwandans accused of being key perpetrators of the genocide are still at large.
