The six were arrested after crossing over from their base in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo and are linked to former army chief Faustin Kayumba Nyamwasa and ex-defence minister Emmanuel Habyarimana, the police said.
“The arrested terrorist criminals revealed their plans to commit acts of terror in Rwanda from their bases in Eastern DRC,” a police statement said, naming the leader of the group as Colonel Norbert Ndererimana.
“They were to target high populated areas, fuel storage facilities and fuel transport vehicles, national leaders as well as diplomats.”
Nyamwasa and Habyarimana are both leading opponents of Rwandan President Paul Kagame and live in exile.
