Nyarubuye: Weapons

Title

Nyarubuye: Weapons

Description

The Nyarubuye memorial displays various artifacts and bones from the massacre. Weapons from the massacre are displayed on a long table. The perpetrators used machetes, carjacks, and modified agricultural tools such as hoes to kill their victims. Bloodstains can be seen on the carjack. A meat grinder sits on the table, supposedly used by the militias for cannibalism. Perpetrators carried jars containing the hot sauce pilli-pilli and dabbed the sauce on bodies to make sure the Tutsi victim was dead.
