Bensouda: Ruto and Sang cases still alive
« on: December 04, 2020, 10:10:44 AM »
Pundit told us the cases were died and were buried ages ago. Now it seems they somehow did a Lazarus. :o :o :o
This (Luo) woman is not a joke like her predecessor Ocampo.

The case is dead.
A new case can be brought up starting with pre-trial.

Uhuru kenyatta case is still alive though. The proceeding were suspended.

“As you are aware, on April 5, 2016, Trial Chamber V (A) vacated the charges against William Samuel Ruto and Joshua Arap Sang, without prejudice to the Prosecution bringing a new case in the future, or in a different form, in light of new evidence,” she said.
