Family, Lawyers of Paul Rusesabagina to Announce Lawsuit Against GainJet for Role in Kidnapping

CHICAGO - Dec. 15, 2020 - PRLog -- The family and legal representatives of illegally extradited and jailed humanitarian Paul Rusesabagina will hold a virtual press conference on Wednesday, December 16th to announce a lawsuit against aviation company GainJet for their role in kidnapping Hotel Rwanda hero Paul Rusesabagina. This case arises out of a conspiracy between the Rwandan government and defendant GainJet to engage in the unlawful extradition, arbitrary detention, and torture of Paul Rusesabagina.

In late August, the international human rights icon whose story of saving 1,268 people during the Rwandan Genocide was told in the film Hotel Rwanda, was flown against his will from Dubai, United Arab Emirates to Kigali, Rwanda.

GainJet has refused to answer questions asked by the family as well as the media about their role and must be held accountable.

Bob Hilliard of Hilliard Martinez Gonzales LLP and Nicholas Shadowen of Hilliard Shadowen LLP, and representatives from the Rusesabagina family will be on hand to discuss the lawsuit and answer questions.

The complaint was filed in federal court in San Antonio, Texas. The press conference will be held via Zoom on Wednesday morning at 10 (EST) (New York/Washington)  and 9 (CST) (Chicago/Texas)
