An RCMP officer has been arrested for allegedly accessing the national police force’s record systems to help the Rwandan government.

The RCMP said in a Feb. 13 that Const. Eli Ndatuje, an Alberta RCMP front-line police officer, is facing three charges in relation to accessing “non-Top Secret RCMP records systems” and intending to share the information with a “foreign actor.” The police force later identified the foreign actor as the Rwandan government.
