According to the study, Baguro opposed the contacts of then-Rwandan President Jubilee Bairimana with the rebels, Rwandan exiles belonging to the Tutsi group, and supported an extremist and racist ideology of "veto power".

The army, under the direct command of Bagusura, set up checkpoints and prevented civilians from escaping from the killing sites.
