UN is asked to push for arrest of Sudan's Bashir
None
The International Criminal Court prosecutor has asked the UN Security Council to consider urging countries or regional groups to arrest Sudan's President Omar Hassan al-Bashir for war crimes.
ICC Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo, who finishes his term this month at the court, based in The Hague, briefed the council on the case on Tuesday, but his suggestion is unlikely to be acted upon because of China's backing for Sudan. (Reuters)
