# '''^''' In this list not included Mgr Phocas Nikwigize, Bishop Emeritus of Ruhengeri. Mgr Nikwigize was born in 1919. He was kidnapped with others near Goma on 27 November 1996 by members of the Rwandan Patriotic Army. None of the people who were kidnapped around this time were not found alive. It would have been assassinated on November 30, 1996, but the Holy See did not declare him dead because his body has not been found and there has been no eyewitness testimony to his death. However, his death has been reported on several occasions. It is inconceivable that he is still alive but that he has not been seen since November 1996.
