The Akazu (Kinyarwanda:[ɑ.kɑ.zu], little house) was an informal organization of Hutu extremists whose members contributed strongly to the 1994 Rwandan genocide. A circle of relatives and close friends of Rwanda's then-president Juvénal Habyarimana and his influential wife Agathe Habyarimana,[1] they were also called the Zero Network, for their goal of a Rwanda with zero Tutsi.[2][3]
