The archive of the SCR revealed Rwanda to have been one of the most monitored countries on earth. The files of this intelligence service had been moved to a basement room in a building on the other side of Kigali. They revealed twenty-four-hour surveillance reports, and records of intercepted telephone calls and listening devices in hotels and embassies. The archive of the SCR contained intercepted mail and family photographs, transcribed interrogations, and the updated addresses of Rwandans living abroad.
