The defence teams of Deputy President William Ruto and journalist Joshua arap Sang are seeking to appeal a decision in which ICC prosecutor Fatou Bensouda was allowed to use prior statements of five witnesses who recanted their evidence.
In separate applications filed yesterday, the two legal teams, led by Karim Khan for Ruto and Katwa Kigen for Sang, argued that Trial Chamber V (a) judges erred in interpreting the amendment to Rule 68 of the Rules of Procedure and Evidence.
