Honore Umuhoza, a 22-year old radio presenter, was arrested on Tuesday in Kigali by the police for announcing his own death in a car crash.

PANA reports that he was arrested after he made the announcement during the religious programme he presents on a private FM station in the capital city of Kigali.

Umuhoza said he wanted to know how his admirers would react in case of bad news.

The police have launched an inquiry into the costly joke.
