Int'l court reports Sudan to UN Security Council

None

The International Criminal Court said Wednesday it has reported Sudan to the UN Security Council for refusing to arrest a government minister and a militia leader suspected of war crimes in Darfur. 

Judges at the court said in a report that Sudan has refused to hand over Humanitarian Affairs Minister Ahmed Harun and Janjaweed militia leader Ali Kushayb.

 

"After taking all possible measures to ensure the cooperation of the Republic of the Sudan, the Chamber concludes that the Republic of the Sudan is failing to comply with its cooperation obligations," the report said. The court ordered the men arrested in 2007 on a total of 51 charges of crimes against humanity and war crimes. (AP)
