The Rwanda Investigation Bureau (RIB) has arrested Mungaruriye Eric along with his accomplices, Beneyo Jean Norbert and Iradukunda Aliane, on charges of fraud and money laundering.
According to preliminary investigations, Mungaruriye established business entities that falsely promised job placements in various sectors.
However, victims were required to pay fees upfront, only to later realize that no jobs were available.
Authorities report that the scheme defrauded individuals of approximately Rwf70 million before the suspects were apprehended.
The three suspects are currently detained at RIB’s Nyarugenge station, as their case file is being finalized for submission to the Prosecution.
In light of this case, RIB has issued a warning to job seekers, urging them to exercise caution, verify employment opportunities before making payments, and remain vigilant against fraudulent job offers.
Investigations into the case are ongoing.
