According to an RCS statement released on November 11, 2024, these dismissals were confirmed by Cabinet Meeting resolutions from November 9, 2024.
The primary reasons cited include professional misconduct such as indiscipline, corruption, and other offenses.
The RCS highlighted that these actions align with its commitment to uphold high standards and values within the service.
In a similar move earlier in May 2024, judicial authorities had investigated over 135 prison officers for various offenses.
Of these, 20 were promptly reinstated, while others were referred to the Rwanda Investigation Bureau, with several recommended for permanent dismissal from their roles.
