Other than Spanish Villas, the Kabugas ran a matatu business and some companies, which were later subject of court cases.

For several years, the government was cagey about businesses associated with Felicien Kabuga, the suspect who was arguably Rwanda’s richest man at the time of the genocide.
At some point, former Attorney-General Amos Wako and Director of Public Prosecutions Keriako Tobiko were taken to task by a Kenyan court to explain why it was unable to trace whoever was running Mr Kabuga’s business empire.
