Barimo Musenyeri Pierre Claverie, Umufaransa wavukiye mu mujyi wa Oran muri Algeria, wiciwe hamwe n'umushoferi we w'umuyisilamu, Mohamed Bouchikhi - wari warahisemo kuguma gutwara uyu Musenyeri nubwo byashyiraga mu kaga ubuzima bwe - ubwo igisasu cyaturikiraga mu rugo iwe. Ubucuti bwabo bwaje kuba intandaro y'ikinamico yahimbwe mu Bufaransa ikitwa Pierre et Mohamed, mu rurimi rw'Igifaransa. Mu kwezi kwa mbere uyu mwaka, ubuyobozi bwa Vaticani bwagize abo bihayimana 19 abahowe Imana kubera ko Vaticani yemeje ko bishwe bitewe n'urwango ababishe bangaga imyemerere yabo ishingiye ku idini.
