Comment
During his interrogation on 25 September 1997 (tape no. 11, p. 19), Jean Kambanda stated that President Mobutu had allegedly been warned by a senior official at the Elysée Palace of the danger associated with the meeting in Dar es Salaam on 6 April 1994. He also mentioned a possible link between this warning and the death of François de Grossouvre on 7 April 1994, officially ruled a suicide, although the circumstances surrounding his death have raised questions. These statements should be considered alongside those made by Jean Birara during his questioning by the Belgian military judicial authorities on 26 May 1994, concerning the information Mobutu may have possessed before the attack on President Habyarimana's aircraft.
