During the genocide, 1994, she lost many loved ones, but was able to escape to Zaire, where she met her husband. When Zaire and Rwanda subsequently went to war, Evelyne’s husband, an officer in the Congolese army, was told to kill his Rwandan wife. He refused and joined a rebel group instead. Evelyne was arrested as enemy and jailed for months with her infant son. Assisted by the UN, she and her husband were finally happily reunited in America in 2000. The family has helped other refugees ever since.ver menos
