Dr Danielle Beswick - Predictor Podflash - UK gives aid to Rwanda as Met police warn exiles of assassination threat

Lucy talks to Dr Danielle Beswick, lecturer in International Development at the University of Birmingham, and Research Associate for the All Party Parliamentary Group on the Great Lakes of Central Africa, about news that the Metropolitan police have warned two Rwandan exiles living in London that they face an "imminent threat" of assassination by the Rwandan government. The men are believed to have been targeted because of criticisms made of President Paul Kagame, and now fear for their lives. The news could prove extremely embarrassing for the Conservative-led coalition, which ploughs millions of pounds of aid into Rwanda, and has continued to cultivate a strong relationship with the country ever since the 1994 genocide.
