Honoré Rakotomanana (born 26 October 1933)[1] is a Malagasy politician and judge.
Beginning in 1995, he was the first Deputy Prosecutor of the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda (ICTR), but was forced to resign in 1997 due to charges of incompetence.
On 20 March 1995, on the recommendation of ICTR Prosecutor Richard Goldstone, United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan appointed Rakotomanana as the first Deputy Prosecutor of the ICTR.
Because Goldstone was based on The Hague, Netherlands, Rakotomanana was in charge of the day-to-day operations of the ICTR prosecutor's office in Kigali, Rwanda.
[3] On 26 February 1997 Rakotomanana and ICTR Registrar Andronico Adede of Kenya resigned their positions after meeting with Annan after a report criticised Adede with mismanagement of ICTR funds and Rakotomanana with failing to pursue the masterminds of the Rwandan genocide.
