ICC declines to include elders in President Uhuru Kenyatta's case

NAIROBI: The International Criminal Court has rejected a move by the National Council of Elders Kenya (NCEK) to file observations in favour of President Uhuru Kenyatta to have the the case against him terminated.

In the ruling, a three judge-bench comprising Presiding Judge Kuniko Ozaki and judges Robert Fremr and Geoffrey Henderson, dismissed the requested intervention by NCEK as neither necessary nor desirable for proper determination of the case.
