== 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 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") 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]].

* Some who blame the shootdown of her husband's plane on the Rwandan military believe [[Théoneste Bagosora]], her right-hand man, ordered the strike.
