The UNHCR, appearing in a UK court, said it had evidence that refugees were not safe in Rwanda. Rwanda has accused UNHCR of "lying" when both were engaged in rescuing refugees from Libya. The Rwandan government has accused the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) of applying double standards and "lying" to British courts about Kigali's treatment of refugees, even while it is in the process of working with Kigali to help some 500 refugees from Libya. "This is just one in a series of wholly unserious allegations that have been levelled against us by the UNHCR," Rwanda said. Rwanda called this "absurd" and added that a group of people were found in violation of Rwanda immigration laws.
