ICC to Announce Bashir Decision on March 4th

This morning, the International Criminal Court announced the date when the Court’s Pre-Trial Chamber will issue its decision concerning Chief Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo’s application for an arrest warrant against Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir. The decision will be announced by a press release and publication on the ICC website on March 4.

This decision will come nearly eight months after the Chief Prosecutor applied for the warrant under article 58 of the Rome Statute.
