PARIS - The Burundian military massacred 4,000 Hutu refugees as they returned to the country from Zaire, the leader of the opposition Front for Democracy in Burundi (FRODEBU) said yesterday.
Mr Jean Minani, head of Burundi's main Hutu party, made the claim in comments on a UN report a week ago which said more than 1,000 people were massacred in Burundi in the four weeks to the end of November.
