Former Ethiopian ruler sentenced


















Mengistu Haile Mariam is given life imprisonment after his conviction last month for genocide.

An Ethiopian court sentenced former ruler, Mengistu Haile Mariam, in his absence to life in prison for atrocities committed against people during his regime.

But Mengistu remains in exile in Zimbabwe and many Ethiopians feel that justice has not been served.

Reuters television takes a closer look at the situation in Ethiopia.
