Police discovered 12 bodies at this home, but he said that he killed an additional two people whose bodies haven't been found.
The victims include 11 women and one man, authorities said. The sex of the other two people Kazungu said he killed wasn't immediately clear.
Kazungu didn't have a lawyer at the hearing and he's expected to appear in court again on Tuesday.
Police alleged that the suspect lured people from bars to his home in a suburb of Kigali.
Though identities of his victims haven't been officially released, a woman has appeared in local media interviews claiming to have escaped from Kazungu.
Authorities say the suspect used different names in a bid to conceal his true identity. Police found the bodies after Kazungu's landlord went to authorities for help because he wasn't being paid rent.
