International Criminal Court to Launch Darfur Prosecutions

HeadlineNov 27, 2006

The International Criminal Court has announced it is close to launching prosecutions against war crimes suspects in Sudan’s Darfur region. This is the court’s chief prosecutor, Luis Moreno-Ocampo.

Luis Moreno-Ocampo: “We have enough evidence in the file—the incidents and who we believe are the most responsible. That, we have now.”

The prosecutor said there is reasonable grounds to believe that crimes against humanity have been committed, but he declined to identify who would be charged.
