Alexis Sinduhije is a presidential candidate in Burundi's 2010 Elections. Before announcing his candidacy last month, Sinduhije was one of Burundi's pioneering radio journalists and civic leaders who was awarded the CPJ's 2004 International Press Freedom Award. He is a leading voice for the rule of law in the great lakes region and in Africa as a whole. Already Sinduhije's investigation of ethnic massacres and outspoken public criticisms of the government's hit squads have earned him death threats and two recent assassination attempts.
