The Kenya government will challenge admissibility of Kenya case at the International Criminal Court.


"The government will challenge the admissibility of the cases as well as the jurisdiction of the court," said a statement by Attorney-General Amos Wako, Internal Security Minister Prof George Saitoti and Justice and Constitutional Affairs Minister Mutula Kilonzo.

If only the Kibs government would have such vigour in abating impunity...or even finding out the truth about the PEV, and sorting out the IDP issues...

total chaos!

Problems can get out of proportion, and not only in the wee small hours. Don't let the problems eclipse the Master. Let the Master eclipse the problems.

So:

"Article 17 of the Rome Statute says:

Having regard to paragraph 10 of the Preamble and article 1, the Court shall determine that a case is inadmissible where:

(a) The case is being investigated or prosecuted by a State which has jurisdiction over it, unless the State is unwilling or unable genuinely to carry out the investigation or prosecution;

(b) The case has been investigated by a State which has jurisdiction over it and the State has decided not to prosecute the person concerned, unless the decision resulted from the unwillingness or inability of the State genuinely to prosecute;

(c) The person concerned has already been tried for conduct which is the subject of the complaint, and a trial by the Court is not permitted under article 20, paragraph 3;

(d) The case is not of sufficient gravity to justify further action by the Court."


So does anyone know on what grounds they will challenge the admissibility?

3 years later NO ONE has been found guilty an only one police officer was prosecuted and acquitted.
Mr Ocampo twende Kazi. And let them not say "Kenya" will fight the ICC but rather, a cabal in the government will fight the ICC.

Which govt of Kenya are we talking about here???.....the whole world know that Kenya has a coalition govt which is not speaking with one voice regarding the ICC,

....this notion that Ocampo is in trouble I really don't, he has nothing to lose really, after all his term is coming to an end and won't be renewed. Those two judges who support his application have their minds made, they will keep ruling against the Ocampo 6 until the real trial begins,0c 6 should be very scared!!!!

Bet the bearded screwhead has never faced so much resistance. The heat generated by the ocampo drama is enuff to upset the trials. Down with this western court that has devided my motherland. The kenyan middle class so so ignorant of the machinani majority!
