Pauline Nyiramasuhuko, 65, was also found guilty of inciting rape at the UN-backed International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, which is prosecuting those accused of orchestrating the killings of more than 800,000 people in Rwanda in 1994.
She stood accused alongside her son, Arsene Ntahobali, 41, who was a student at the time of the massacres. In the dock beside his mother, he was also convicted of similar charges yesterday. The pair were sentenced to life in prison.
