It has been several months since the International Criminal Court (ICC) requested an arrest warrant for Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir. ICC accuses Beshir of criminal responsibility for “exterminating, raping and forcibly transferring large number of civilians.”
However, Omar al-Bashir is still at large. It seems nothing can stop him from traveling. In the last three months alone, he traveled to Egypt, Libya, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Saudi Arabia and attended Arab the summit in Qatar. But, no attempt has yet been made to arrest him during any of these trips. The African Union and the Arab league have supported Bashir. In fact, many African countries have said they will not arrest Al-Bashir even though other nations have supported the arrest warrant. So, what will be the ICC’s next action?
