Three months before Kenya’s deputy president is due to go on trial at the International Criminal Court in The Hague, 93 victims of violence that followed a disputed election in 2007 have pulled out from proceedings.
According to Kenyan media outlet, CapitalNews, the 93 victims informed the court that they did not support the prosecution of Kneya’s newly elected president Uhuru Kanyatta and deputy president William Ruto, who stands accused of orchestrating the violence.
The International Criminal Court, declined to comment on the withdrawals, indicating that they would have no consequences on the trial.
