CICC Members to Form a Syrian Coalition for the ICC

CICC members in Syria are currently working to establish a coalition of Syrian organizations worldwide to work on ICC-related issues and advocacy on Syria, where massive human rights and humanitarian law violations have threatened security and undermined the rule of law. At this initial phase, the Arab-European Center for Human Rights and International Law (AECHRIL) is taking the lead in forming the Syrian Coalition for the ICC.  Hopefully, there will soon be a meeting of interested organizations that will, among other things, elect or select a host organization and a coordinator. The Arab-European  Center for Human Rights and International Law was created in 2006, is a CICC member and serves as an umbrella organization that consists of a network of Syrian and Middle East and North Africa (MENA) human rights activists working for the Syrian cause across MENA and beyond. For more information, please contact AECHRIL's Azab AlAziz at [email protected] or [email protected], in addition to contacting the CICC's MENA team at [email protected]

ICC Prosecutor Bensouda Presents 5th Report on Libya to UN Security Council

CICC

At a meeting of the UN Security Council on 8 May, ICC Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda delivered the OTP's fifth report on the situation in Libya. Bensouda discussed cooperation with the Libyan government and addressed Libya's challenge to the admissibility of the ICC cases against Saif Al-Islam Gaddafi and Abdullah Al-Senussi, as well as ongoing investigations into grave crimes allegedly committed in Libya. During the meeting, the representative from Rwanda mentioned a letter from Kenya to the Security Council asking that the Kenyan ICC cases be terminated. Bensouda noted that she had not seen the letter, but dismissed it as an attempt to politicize the ICC's judicial processes.
