ICC refers Libya to UN over trial of Gadhafi's son
Judges at the International Criminal Court ruled Wednesday that Libya failed to comply with a request to hand over the son of the late dictator Moammar Gadhafi for prosecution on charges of crimes against humanity and referred the matter to the UN Security Council.
The Security Council, which referred the uprising that ousted Gadhafi to the ICC in 2011, could impose new sanctions on the Libya government. But it's unclear whether any new action would be effective because the country has split into two governments, one elected and the other backed by Islamists.
