0 comments

The International Criminal Court (ICC) Judges have rejected the joint defence request to hold trials against Deputy President William Ruto and former radio journalist Joshua Sang in Kenya or in Tanzania.

"The Judges of the International Criminal Court (ICC) have decided, in a plenary session, that the commencement of the trial against William Samoei Ruto and Joshua Arap Sang will take place at the seat of the Court in The Hague, the Netherlands,” read a statement by ICC.

The trial is scheduled to commence on 10 September 2013, in the presence of the accused.

The Judges decided that the proceedings in this instance shall be held at the ICC’s headquarters.

The recommendation would see the ICC proceedings brought closer to the affected communities.
