President Bill Clinton flew to Kigali from South Africa on Wednesday, July 18, on a 3-day visit, Rwanda Times reports.

But so far, President Clinton has been deafeningly mum on the fate of journalist Idriss Gasana Byiringiro of the weekly The Chronicles, abducted and detained incommunicado without warrant and probable cause by the much-feared Rwandan Criminal Investigation Department (CID) since the evening of Monday, July 16--following a week of harassment, intimidation, and a prior instance of abduction. 

Here is the Kafkaesque tale of Idriss Gasana Byiringiro as narrated by the The Chronicles.
