The Akazu was an informal group of Hutu Power adherents who participated in and planned the Rwandan Genocide. Many of the members were friends or relatives of Juvénal Habyarimana or his wife and belonged to the ruling MRND party. They were often referred to as the Zero Network because they wanted a Rwanda with zero Tutsis.
The word akazu is Kinyarwanda for "little house".
