IJCentral: International Justice Central

The Kenyan government has lost its application challenging the admissibility of the post election violence cases that are currently ongoing at the International Criminal Court. The application had been filed by Attorney General Amos Wako. Judges at the International Criminal Court (ICC) Pre-Trial Chamber while throwing out the Kenya’s application said the post election violence cases were properly before court. The ruling effectively dashes hopes of the 6 post election violence suspects of having the cases against them tried through a local mechanism.
