Two Sudanese rebel leaders suspected of war crimes in Darfur will appear today at the International Criminal Court to face questions over the killing of 12 African Union peacekeepers in Darfur in 2007.
Abdallah Banda Abakaer Nourain and Saleh Mohammed Jerbo Jamus are suspected of committing murder, intentionally directing attacks and pillaging in a September 2007 attack in Haskanita. Their case is part of the tribunal’s push to try those responsible for the conflict that the United Nations estimates has killed 300,000 since 2003. Khartoum says 10,000 have died. Bahr Idris Abu Garda, another Sudanese rebel leader who appeared at the court on suspicion of crimes in Haskanita, appeared voluntarily at the court last year but was cleared of charges. The Hague-based court, established in 2002 to try those responsible for war crimes, had issued a secret summons for Banda and Jerbo a year ago. They will appear voluntarily at the ICC on Thursday, after arriving on Wednesday.
