ICC rejects Kenya's admissibility challenge

http://ww.ntv.co.ke
The government has suffered what may well be the last setback in its efforts to block the ICC process on the post election violence cases, after the ICC appeals chamber rejected Kenya's appeal on admissibility challenge. The appeals chamber ruled that the cases against six Kenyans will proceed in The Hague, adding that the Kenya government had failed to provide sufficient evidence or show its seriousness in investigating the six individuals said to bear the greatest responsibility. And as Jane Kiyo reports the ruling paves the way for the confirmation of charges hearings, which are only two days away.

Ruto mwizi wa maidi na mashamba and Uhuru mwizi wa mashamba, H Kosgy for all african games 1987 alilalua pesa ya michezo, all those guys let them go to jail or let them be hunged coz they are murderers.

I just noticed that Ruto has won a leather jacket similar to Mzee Jomo Kenyatta's. Freedom fighter/hero wannabe. best of wishes my bro(tongue firmly planted in cheek)

It is a shame that Kenyans continue to fawn over someone like Ruto (and the other 5 in the Hague 6). Saying that, I am aware of the legal precept, "innocent until proven guilty." However, there's also "penye moshi pana moto" and, in any case, ethics in public office should never have to be doubted or fringed with even the vaguest scintilla of untoward conduct. The crimes that the 6 are accused of should be enough cause for everyone to treat them with an unrelenting moral indignation not fetes.

Hon Ruto, I wish you the very best..hope justice will prevail and the truth will come out..most of us knows who actually should be going to haque but you and the other 5 were sacrificed...

this is the difference between a baraza ya wazee under a tree and a court governed by laws...Ruto has to stay 12 days extra in HaQue....he can't fool these judges!

Kenyan Ministers like Chirau Makwere and them stupid Mps should be ashamed of themselves for idolising Murder suspects like Ruto and Uhuru ! How quick they forget. This goons were responsible of murdering over 1000 Kenyans in cold blood ,displacing over a Mill and maiming thousands,some left with life long scars and traumas . And what do we do to this suspects , Kiss there assses and wait, we're about to reward them with the Presidency next year ! ONLY IN KENYA! Kenyans are a bunch of A-holes

Mr Ruto will forever be astounded but the case has to proceed to the very end; in this part of the world facts and not numbers count. The number of deafening decibels of noises made by sycophants and political squealers does not sway the way judgement is made in this part of the world. The IDS and those who were maimed, murdered and raped for doing the right thing are about to receive justice thanks to the global connections. Those who are dumbfounded should continue in that mode!
