Violence victim opposes bid to stop ICC prosecutor
Published in: Legalbrief Africa
Date: Mon 08 February 2010
Category: Kenya
Issue No: 367



A victim of last year's post-election violence has written to the ICC's pre-trial chamber asking it to block two Americans seeking to have prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo's application to launch investigations dismissed, notes a Daily Nation report.

Citing the Kiambaa church massacre case, the victim, through the International Criminal Court lawyer Nicholas Kaufman, told a three-judge bench handling the Kenyan case that they had no confidence in the local judicial system. In his application, the unnamed victim says the local system failed him and other Kiambaa church victims as evidenced by the outcome of a criminal trial in the High Court in Nakuru. According to the report, he was referring to the decision by Judge DK Maraga to acquit all the four people accused of orchestrating the attack on the church.
