Rome - Roman Catholic missionaries sent to Rwanda to investigate the disappearance of a British monk have found his burned-out car and the body of another monk with whom he was travelling, their order said. Christopher Mannion, 43, and his fellow Marist Order brother Joseph Rushigayiki disappeared on 1 July while driving to the town of Save to evacuate other missionaries after it fell to the Rwandese Patriotic Front (RPF). Some Save residents said Mr Mannion had been injured and taken by the RPF for medical treatment, while others suggested he might have been taken captive. Reuter
