Burundi to leave International Criminal Court, official says
None
BUJUMBURA- A Burundi official says the country will withdraw from the International Criminal Court, months after the court said it will investigate violence sparked by President Pierre Nkurunziza's re-election.
Burundi's first vice president, Gaston Sindimwo, said Thursday that the government had presented a draft law in parliament to debate how the country can withdraw from its membership in the ICC.
Sindimwo also accused the court of violating the rights of Africans.
