阿鲁沙的另一项重大进展也涉及恩吉拉巴特图瓦雷先生。我指的是单独一位法官于10月10日确认对他提出控诉，指控他藐视并煽动藐视卢旺达问题国际法庭和余留机制。恩吉拉巴特图瓦雷先生在10月17日首次出庭时表示不服罪。第二天，检方要求将新的藐视法庭案与“检察官诉马克西米利安·图里纳博等人”案中现有的藐视法庭诉讼合并审理。我可以跟安理会分享的是，就在昨天，独任法官批准了合案请求。因此，恩吉拉巴图瓦雷先生藐视法庭案将与Turinabo等人案合并审理，现在该案将对六名而非五名被告提起诉讼。
Another significant development in Arusha also concerns Mr. Ngirabatware. I am referring to the confirmation by the single Judge on 10 October of an indictment against him concerning allegations of contempt and incitement to commit contempt of the ICTR and the Mechanism. Mr. Ngirabatware pleaded not guilty at his initial appearance on 17 October, and on the following day the Prosecution requested that that new contempt case be joined to the existing contempt proceedings in Prosecutor v. Maximilien Turinabo et al. case. I can share with the Council that, only yesterday, the request for joinder was granted by the single Judge. Mr. Ngirabatware’s contempt case will therefore be joined to the Turinabo et al. case, which will now proceed against six accused persons rather than five.
