The United Nations UN war crimes tribunal on Friday ruled that a geriatric Rwandan genocide suspect, who has been found unfit to stand trial, is also not fit to travel to Rwanda and will need to remain in a UN detention unit as no states will accept him.

In their ruling, UN judges called on European states to take in nonagenarian Felicien Kabuga who is now wheelchair-bound and largely confined to the detention centres hospital unit.

In 2023, the UN court said that Kabuga would not have to stand trial on genocide charges due to his dementia.
