International Criminal Court Investigation In Kenya

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The International Criminal Court investigation in Kenya or the situation in the Republic of Kenya is an ongoing investigation by the International Criminal Court (ICC) into the events surrounding the 2007-2008 post-election violence in Kenya. Following presidential and parliamentary elections which took place in Kenya in December 2007, official results were disputed and a period of violence and unrest ensued. The Electoral Commission of Kenya officially declared that the incumbent President Mwai Kibaki was re-elected; however supporters of the opposition candidate Raila Odinga accused the government of electoral fraud and rejected the results. A large series of protests and demonstrations followed, and fighting, mainly along tribal lines, led to many deaths, injuries and displacements. After failed attempts to conduct a criminal investigation in Kenya to prosecute the key perpetrators, the matter was referred to the International Criminal Court in The Hague. In 2010, the Prosecutor of the ICC announced that he was seeking summonses for six people, including the incumbent Deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta and two other members of the National Assembly. The six suspects, known colloquially as the "Ocampo six" were indicted by the ICC\'s Pre-Trial Chamber II on 8 March 2011 and summoned to appear before the Court.
