Editing Agathe Habyarimana (section)

== Akazu and genocide planning ==
At some point in the early 1990's in response to the Rwandan Civil War and democratization of the country, Agathe and her allies formed a group within the ruling [[MRND]] party called the ''[[Akazu]]'' (Kinyarwanda: "little house") also known as the Zero Network. Since Agathe was the leader, it was also known as ''le clan de madame''(French: "the lady's clan"). The group was informal and was not an organization, nor a secret society. They believed the time had come to eliminate the Tutsi once and for all, and their objective was to promote this idea to the general Hutu population.

They created ''[[Kangura]]'' magazine, which was edited by one of their members, [[Hassan Ngeze]] and funded by the businessmen in the group, such as [[Felicien Kabuga]], who, together with some of the group's other members, would also organize [[Radio Télévision Libre des Mille Collines]], which promoted the [[Hutu Power]] ideology.

Habyarimana was flown out of Rwanda three days after the killings began, and landed in France, which had also helped other Akazu members escape, albeit not all to France.
