NAIROBI, KENYA: Lawyers representing Deputy President William Ruto and former broadcaster Joshua arap Sang at the International Criminal Court (ICC) are working on a legal strategy which may lead to their cases being decided before the end of the year.
The two are weighing the option of filing a “no-case-to-answer motion” which would compel the judges to determine the separate acquittal motions on the two respective cases. The no-case-to-answer motion is an ICC parlance also known as judgment of acquittal, motion for directed verdict of acquittal, motion for non-suit and half-time motion in other jurisdictions.
