Most of the key Hutus in charge have been tried. So far, the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda has finished 50 trials and convicted 29 accused persons. Another 11 trials are in progress. 14 individuals are awaiting trial in detention; but the prosecutor intends to transfer 5 to national jurisdiction for trial. 13 others are still at large, some suspected to be dead.
The Hutus.
During the Rwandan Genocide, over 900,00 tutsis were killed by the hutus with machetes.
The Hutus and Tutsis.
Ethnic conflicts caused the genocide in that the hutus scapegoated the minority of tutsis with all the issues of the Rwandan state.
The 2 groups involved in it were the Hutus and Tutsis.
In the Rwandan genocide it was mainly the Hutus who did most of the killings.
the hutus wanted more political power and at the time the tutsi were president at the time and the hutus were resentful
Because the rwandans and the tutsis and hutus killed each other.
The genocide took place in the context of the Rwandan Civil War, an ongoing conflict beginning in 1990 between the Hutu-led government and the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF), which was largely composed of Tutsi refugees whose families had fled to Uganda following earlier waves of Hutu violence against the Tutsi. Most of the dead were Tutsis and most of those who perpetrated the violence were Hutus. The genocide was sparked by the death of the Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana, a Hutu, when his plane was shot down above Kigali airport on 6 April 1994.

The Rwandan genocide occured because the Hutus, the most dominant ethnic group in Rwanda at the time, began persecuting Tutsis, blaming political & economic hardship on them; it was basically because of racism.
