Following the Rwandan genocide and the victory by the army of the Tutsi-dominated Rwandan Patriotic Army ( RPA ) , many ethnic Hutus , including an unknown number of those who had committed genocide , ( Génocidaires ) fled from the RPF controlled areas to zones controlled by the French as part of Opération Turquoise and into the neighbouring states of Burundi , Zaire , and Tanzania . When the French withdrew in August 1994 , the administration of a number of internally displaced persons ( IDP ) camps was taken over by the United Nations Assistance Mission for Rwanda ( UNAMIR ) and a number of aid organizations . The new Rwandan government , dominated by the victorious Rwandan Patriotic Front ( RPF ) , wished to identify those individuals and Interahamwe militia members in the camps who had committed genocide
