Fatou Bensouda has failed to prosecute Kenyatta case

As the case against President Uhuru Kenyatta approaches its end, the Prosecution refrain has been constant: the case is in trouble not because it lacks  evidence, or has unreliable witnesses, but solely because the Government of Kenya has failed to cooperate in supplying the evidence necessary to support her claims.

The problems with that spin on the case are familiar, though they will bear repeating. The first is very simple: Bensouda's arguments about the Government of Kenya's handling of her request for evidence are both inadequate and irrelevant.
