NAIROBI: The International Criminal Court Friday granted the Deputy President William Ruto his wish to meet Pope Francis when the pontiff jets into the country on November 25. The judges yielded to Ruto's request to be allowed to host the Pope in Nairobi. The court postponed the hearing dates of the cases from November 24 and November 25 to January 14 and 15 next year.
Presiding Judge Chile Eboe-Osuji and his colleagues in the three-judge bench Judge Olga Herrera Carbuccia and Judge Robert Fremr said the two dates in the middle of January next year were "the earliest possible dates following the Court's move to the permanent premises."
