2008-09-15 |
The trial of 19 alleged Darfur rebels accused of taking part in an unprecedented attack on the Sudanese capital in May was adjourned on Sunday after six defendants said they were minors. The judge at the special court in Khartoum ordered that the six - five of whom said they were 17 and one who said he was 16 - be given medical checks to confirm their ages. |
