ICC dismisses charges against Sudan rebel leader
2010-02-09
[Al Arabiya Latest] The International Criminal Court dismissed charges against a Sudanese rebel leader on Monday, ruling against allegations he helped orchestrate the killing of 12 African Union peacekeepers in Darfur in 2007.

The war crimes court threw out the charges against Bahar Idriss Abu Garda after a pre-trial chamber ruled he could not be held criminally responsible for intentionally directing the attack.

"The chamber was not satisfied that there was sufficient evidence to establish substantial grounds to believe that Bahar Idriss Abu Garda could be held criminally responsible," the court said in a statement.
