UBUSHINJACYAHA v NSABIMANA N'ABANDI
MRCD-FLN leaders are criminally liable for preparatory acts that enabled subsequent terrorist acts, not for all acts committed by subordinates; sentence reductions for guilty pleas require unequivocal admission and remorse; first-instance court erred in reducing sentences below statutory minimum without legal basis; damages may be awarded jointly to all convicted for the same crime; no incidental appeals are allowed in criminal cases.
